Answer:
The Tax is a lump-sum which means that it does not change by output. It is therefore a fixed cost.
Average Fixed Cost ⇒ INCREASE
The new tax would increase the fixed costs which would lead to an increase in the average fixed costs.
Average Variable Cost ⇒ UNCHANGED
The tax is a fixed cost not a variable cost which means variable costs will not be affected.
Average Total cost ⇒ INCREASE
Fixed costs is a part of total cost and if that increases, the total cost will have to increase as well.
Marginal Cost ⇒ UNCHANGED
As the cost that changed is a fixed cost, the total cost will not change as a result of more production so marginal cost will not change.
A company that is using the internal rate of return (IRR) to evaluate projects should accept a project if the IRR: is less than the firm's cost of investment capital. is greater than the project's net present value. is greater than the hurdle rate. is greater than zero. equates the present value of the project's cash inflows with the present value of the project's cash outflows.
Answer:
is greater than the hurdle rate.
Explanation:
other options are wrong because:
equates the present value of the project's cash inflows with the present value of the project's cash outflows ⇒ this is the definition of IRR
is greater than zero ⇒ if the project yields any profit, its IRR should be higher than 0
is less than the firm's cost of investment capital ⇒ the firm's NPV would be negative
is greater than the project's net present value ⇒ this simply doesn't make sense
Discuss the difference between absolute advantage and comparative advantage. Which is more important in determining trade patterns
Answer:
A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries while A country has absolute advantage in the production of a good or service if it produces more quantity of a good when compared to other countries
Comparative advantage is more important in determining trade patterns
Explanation:
For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.
for country A,
opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5
opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2
for country B,
opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5
opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2
Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of beans and country B has a comparative advantage in the production of rice
Country A has absolute advantage in the production of beans while country B has absolute advantage in the production of rice

Firm A is worth $200 million as an independent firm and Firm B is worth $30 million as an independent firm. Firm A currently has 4 million shares outstanding and Firm B has 6 million shares outstanding. If the firm's merge the total value of the merged firm is $240 million. Suppose Firm A offers to buy Firm B for $6.50 a share and the boards of both firms have agreed to the deal. However, the market is unsure whether regulators will approve the merger and thus they believe that the deal will only go through with a probability of 1/2. Given this information: (a) What would the stock price of Firm B to be immediately after the announcement of the merger agreement
Answer:
The stock price of Firm B to be immediately after the announcement of the merger agreement is:
= $5.75
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Worth of Firm A as an independent firm = $200 million
Firm A's outstanding shares = 4 million
Share price of Firm A = $50 ($200/4) per share
Worth of Firm B as an independent firm = $30 million
Firm B's outstanding shares = 6 million
Share price of Firm B = $5 ($30/6) per share
The total value of the merged firm (Firm A & B) = $240 million
Price offered for Firm B = $6.50
Probability of deal going through = 0.5 (1/2)
Probability of deal not going through = 0.5 (1 - 0.5)
Value of Firm B with deal going through = $39 million ($6.50 * 6 million)
Value of Firm B with deal not going through = $30 million
Expected value of Firm B under probability = ($39 * 0.5) + ($30 * 0.5) million
= $34.5 million
Share price of Firm B = $5.75 ($34.5 million/ 6 million)
b) The share price of Firm B immediately after the announcement of the merger agreement will depend on the expected values of the deal going through and the deal not going through. These are weighted and then divided by the number of outstanding shares to get the price per share.

Which of the following statements is correct? Group of answer choices The normal balance of revenue is a debit. The normal balance of dividends is a credit. The normal balance of cash is a credit. The normal balance of liabilities is a credit.
Answer:
The normal balance of liabilities is a credit.
Explanation:
In the double entry system one account must be debited in order for the other to be credited.
There are different balances for each account. For the accounts with normal credit balance a credit causes it to increase while a debit decreases it.
For accounts with negative balance a credit reduces its balance while a debit increases its balance.
- Asset: Debit
- Expense: Debit
- Dividends: Debit
- Liability: Credit
- Owner’s Equity: Credit
- Revenue: Credit
- Retained Earnings: Credit
Liabilities are debt owed by a business. When payment is given out to settle a debt (a debit) it reduces to amount a business owes.
If more loans are collected (a credit) the liability figure increases.
So liability has a normal credit balance

If a company had a beginning balance of $69,000 on its statement of changes in owner's equity, the owner had drawings of $15,000 and the ending balance was $76,000, how much net income was recorded
Answer: $22,000

A $102,500 mortgage has monthly payments for 25 years, at 6.25% interest. How much are the monthly payments
Answer:
$676.16
Explanation:
We are required to find the monthly payments (PMT). This can be calculated using a financial calculator as follows :
PV = $102,500
P/yr = 12
i = 6.25%
N = 25 × 12 = 300
FV = $0
PMT = ?
Using a Financial Calculator to enter the values as above, the PMT will be $676.16. Therefore, he monthly payments on the mortgage are $676.16.
g a. Provide the journal entry if the investor purchases the assets and assumes the liabilities of the investee company.
Answer:
Debit : All assets bought at their Fair Value Amounts
Debit : Goodwill (if Payment is greater than Net Assets acquired)
Credit : All liabilities assumed at their Fair Value Amounts
Credit : Method of payment for example cash
Credit : Gain on acquisition (if Net Assets acquired are greater than Payment)
Explanation:
Hi, your question is incomplete, i tried to look for the full question online but i could not find it.
However, below is an explanation to solving the problem.
An acquisition of investee Assets and Liabilities is not a business combination transaction that requires preparation of consolidated financial statements.
A business combination is a transaction or event in which an ACQUIRER obtains CONTROL of one or more Businesses. So, if it is not a business, it is a mere ASSET ACQUISITION transaction.
Thus said, in our question investor purchases the assets and assumes the liabilities of the investee company, this is an Asset Acquisition transaction and not a Business Combination transaction.
The excess of consideration paid over the net assets acquired at fair value is called goodwill and must be recognized. If not the case the excess of net assets acquired over purchase price (gain on acquisition) must be recognized.
Below are the accounting entries to record an Asset Acquisition transaction.
Debit : All assets bought at their Fair Value Amounts
Debit : Goodwill (if Payment is greater than Net Assets acquired)
Credit : All liabilities assumed at their Fair Value Amounts
Credit : Method of payment for example cash
Credit : Gain on acquisition (if Net Assets acquired are greater than Payment)
g Suppose you place a lump-sum tax on a monopolist. How will that affect its output and pricing decisions
Answer:
The lump-sum tax placed on the monopolist will result to a decrease in production output and an increase in the price of the product.
Explanation:
In Economics, a monopolist is an entity with almost total control of a market or industry. Since it is not a price taker, it determines the production quantity and the market price of its product. By its nature, a monopoly, which is a product of extreme capitalism, is not good for an economy. Some of the disadvantages of a monopoly are the restriction of market output, the charging of higher prices than in a more competitive market, and the reduction of consumer surplus and economic welfare.
A standard worker produces 8 printers per one shift. If the work average is such that 90% efficiency is expected, what is the actual number of printers that should be produced per one shift
Answer: 7.2 printers
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a standard worker produces 8 printers per one shift and that the work average is such that 90% efficiency is expected.
The actual number of printers that should be produced per one shift would be gotten by multiplying the efficiency by the standard worker output. This will be:
= 8 × 90%
= 8 × 90/100
= 8 × 0.9
= 7.2 printers

What is dividend ?A corporation's payout of profits to its shareholders is known as a dividend. A corporation is able to distribute a portion of its profit as a dividend to shareholders when it generates a profit or surplus.
Any remaining funds are seized and reinvested in the company (called retained earnings). A corporation is typically not allowed to pay a dividend out of its capital; therefore, both the current year's profit and the retained earnings from prior years are eligible for distribution.
If the company has a dividend reinvestment plan, the amount can be paid by the issuance of more shares through share repurchase. Alternatively, distribution to shareholders can be made in cash. The distribution may occasionally consist of assets.
A shareholder's dividend is considered their own income and could be liable to income tax (see dividend tax). This income is taxed in various ways depending on the jurisdiction.

The price of hotdog buns increases sharply. Indicate what will happen to the demand for DECADOGS, a nadonally-recognized brand of hotdog.
Answer:
The demand for DECADOGS in this scenario will decrease sharply
Explanation:
The demand for DECADOGS in this scenario will decrease sharply. This is because as the price of hotdog buns increases less and fewer individuals will purchase hotdog buns because they simply cannot afford to pay those prices or believe they are not worth the price. Since hotdog buns and hotdog demand are correlated with one another (since they are foods that depend on one another), people will not need to buy DECADOGS hotdogs since they are not buying the hotdog buns.

An elevator operator was a common job four decades ago, but few jobs remain today. The unemployment created by the introduction of automatic elevators is:
Answer: Structural unemployment
Explanation:
Structural unemployment occurs when the skills needed by the job market are not the skills that unemployed people have.
It usually happens as a result of an improvement in technology because the technology introduced would make the skills that the previous workers had obsolete.
In this scenario, the introduction of more efficient elevators reduced the need for elevator operators so their skills were no longer needed and they became unemployed.

If the firm spends the additional $293,000 for advertising in year 2, what is the sales level in dollars required to equal the year 1 after-tax operating profit
Question Completion:
Eagle Company makes the MusicFinder, a sophisticated satellite radio. Eagle has experienced a steady growth in sales for the past five years. However, Ms. Luray, Eagle's CEO, believes that to maintain the company's present growth will require an aggressive advertising campaign next year. To prepare for the campaign, the company's accountant, Mr. Bednarik, has prepared and presented to Ms. Luray the following data for the current year, Year 1:
Variable costs:
Direct labor (per unit) $92
Direct materials (per unit) 39
Variable overhead (per unit) 15
Total variable costs (per unit) $146
Fixed costs (annual):
Manufacturing $386,000
Selling 292,000
Administrative 796,000
Total fixed costs (annual) $1,474,000
Selling price (per unit) $419

Answer:
Eagle Company
The sales level in dollars required to equal the year 1 after-tax operating profit is:
$10,086,587.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Selling price per unit $419
Total Variable cost per unit $146
Contribution per unit $273
Year 1 After-tax operating profit:
Sales revenue (23,000 * $419) = $9,637,000
Variable costs (23,000 * $146) = 3,358,000
Contribution (23,000 * $273) = $6,279,000
Total fixed costs (annual) = $1,474,000
Before Tax profit = $4,805,000
Income tax (30%) = 1,441,500
After-Tax profit = $3,363,500
To produce the same after-tax profit, which is equal to $3,363,500 with the additional $293,000 for advertising in year 2, the before tax profit will also be $4,805,000. And the new fixed costs will increase to $1,767,000 ($1,474,000 + $293,000).
Therefore, Sales unit to produce target profit of $4,805,000, equals to:
= (Fixed costs + Target profit)/Contribution margin per unit
= ($1,767,000 + $4,805,000)/$273
= 24,073 units
Sales level in dollars = 24,073 * $419 = $10,086,587
Check:
Variable cost = 3,514,658
Contribution 6,571,929
Fixed costs 1,767,000
Target profit 4,804,929 approx. = $4,805,000
Charter Corporation manufactures a single product that has a cost of $350. The company uses a 70% markup on cost to arrive at a selling price of $595, which results in a price that virtually always exceeds that of the market leaders. If Charter changes to the approach known as target costing, the company will first: undertake a thorough study of competitors' prices. change the markup so that it is based on sales rather than based on cost. attempt to re-engineer its product. trim its $350 cost. reduce its 70% markup rate.
Answer:
trim its $350 cost.
Explanation:
Target costing starts in the final selling of a good and then the company deducts its desired markup. The result is the target cost of the product. The company then tries to cut production costs in order to reach that target cost.
E.g. the market price is $500
target cost = $500 / 1.7 = $294.12
the company will try to manufacture its product spending just $294.12 per unit
Whirly Corporation’s contribution format income statement for the most recent month is shown below: Total Per Unit Sales (8,000 units) $ 240,000 $ 30.00 Variable expenses 152,000 19.00 Contribution margin 88,000 $ 11.00 Fixed expenses 54,200 Net operating income $ 33,800 Required: (Consider each case independently): 1. What would be the revised net operating income per month if the sales volume increases by 40 units? 2. What would be the revised net operating income per month if the sales volume decreases by 40 units? 3. What would be the revised net operating income per month if the sales volume is 7,000 units?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Unitary contribution margin= $11
Fixed costs= $54,200
First, we need to calculate the net income y sales were 8,040:
Net income= 8,040*11 - 54,200
Net income= $34,240
Now, if sales were 7,960:
Net income= 7,960*11 - 54,200
Net income= $33,360
Finally, if sales were 7,000:
Net income= 7,000*11 - 54,200
Net income= $22,800
