The answer is "market stability".

Explanation:

Instability, emerging innovations as well as an evolving industry also will function and eradicate the advantages so, the corporation does and put its competitiveness as the advantage at risk.

"Market stability" is the only choice, which is not a hazard to a fixed edge. So, well as circumstances wouldn't change, its edge will appear to become the right response.

Answer:

the question is missing the numbers, so I looked for a similar question:

Suppose you receive $100 at the end of each year for the next three years. a. If the interest rate is 8%, what is the present value of these cash flows? (Answer: $257) b. What is the future value in three years of the present value you computed in (a)? (Answer: $324.61) c. Suppose you deposit the cash flows in a bank account that pays 8% interest per year. What is the balance in the account at the end of each of the next three years (after your deposit is made)? How does the final bank balance compare with your answer in (b)?

a) PV = $100/1.08 + $100/1.08² + $100/1.08³ = $257.71

b) FV = $257.71 x (1 + 8%)³ = $324.64

c) FV = ($100 x 1.08²) + ($100 x 1.08) + $100 = $324.64

it is exactly the same as the answer for (b)

Answer:

I , III and IV

Explanation:

The free cash flow is the cash flow in which the cash is left after paying off the operating expenses and the capital structure

Free cash flow is

= EBIT × (1 - tax rate) + depreciation & Amortization - changes in net working capital - capital expenditure

Therefore, the correct option is I, III and IV and the same is to be considered

Answer:

First of all, you must invest enough money in B in order to pay your debt.

present value = future value / expected return

present value = $24,000 / $1.36 = $17,647.06

you have $90,000 - $17,647.06 = $72,352.94 to invest in A.

at the end of year 2, you will have:

future value = present value x expected return = $72,352.94 x $1.20 = $86,823.53

then you should invest that money ($86,823.53) in invested D and at the end of year 4 you will have:

future value = $86,823.53 x $1.66 = $144,127.06

finally, you should invest $144,127.06 in investment E and at the end of ear 5 you will have:

future value = $144,127.06 x $1.12 = $161,422.31

2) it is really hard to draw a diagram without drawing tools, but i will try

              ⇒ invest $17,647.06  in B      ⇒ year 3, collect $24,000

                                                                  from B and pay off debt

today

$90,000  

              ⇒ invest $72,352.94     ⇒ year 2, invest         ⇒ year 4, invest

                  in A                                  $86,823.53  in D        $144,127.06  in E

continues ...  ⇒ year 5, collect $161,422.31  from E

Answer:

$1,015.96

Explanation:

The Price of the Bond (PV) can be calculated as follows :

Fv = $1,000

Pmt = ($1,000 × 8.04%) ÷ 2 = $40.20

n = 9 × 2 = 18

p/yr = 2

i = 7.79%

pv = ?

Using a financial calculator to input the values as shown above, the Price of the Bond (PV) is $1,015.96

Answer: B. inefficient; the rent ceiling has no effect on the number of rooms rented

Explanation:

If the college strictly enforces the rent ceiling of ​$250 a​ month, the​ on-campus housing market is​ inefficient because the rent ceiling has no effect on the number of rooms rented.

An efficient market will see equilibrium supply meting equilibrium demand and this is not the case in this market because the supply seems to stay the same regardless of the demand.

This market is inefficient because supply does not react to the rent paid and is always the same. This is why a rent ceiling of $250 had no effect on the market in terms of supply. Efficient markets should see both supply and demand reacting to price so that a mutually beneficial equilibrium can be reached.

Answer:

C. Raising the reserve requirement

Explanation:

Contractionary monetary policy refers to the Fed's action of reducing money supply in the economy. Reducing the money supply slows down the economy, thereby countering expansion and inflationary pressures. Raising the reserve requirement is one tool that the Fed uses as a contractionary monetary policy.

Reserve requirements refer to the percentage of customer deposits that the Fed requires commercial banks to maintain at all times. An increase in reserve requirement decreases the money available for banks to lend out. Reduced lending means a decrease in the money supply, which results in a decline in the inflation rate.

Answer:

1) a. True

Rosa is almost always right when she knows that her company is a monopoly, i.e. has no competition, but is generally wrong when her company has to compete with other contractors. It is simple, a monopolist can decide which markup percentage to use, and can use a really high one, but when competition exists, markups are not so high and profits not so abundant. That is why she almost always gets it wrong when having to deal with other competitors.

2) a. False

The winner's curse usually happens when someone wins a bid over some contract or asset, but then they realize that the actual price of the contract or asset was lower than the bid. E.g. in an auction, two people are fighting over to see who buys an antique car which increases the price of the car way beyond the real market value. But it can also happen to a company that offers very low prices, and then after they won a contract, cannot perform properly because their actual costs are higher.

When a company makes an offer, they are certain about the price of the contract and they should know the value of the services or goods that they are offering. If Rosa underestimates her costs, and prepares her offer using unrealistically low costs, then she will probably win the bid but end up losing money.

Answer:

The court ruled against both Americar and Regency Inn, and then Regency Inn won its case against Americar. The nuisance case itself is pretty unpleasant, so it's not worth referring to it.

The fundamentals for the ruling against Americar were that they themselves had drafted the lease agreement and that the clause included in the lease agreement by which they agreed to indemnify Regency Inn was valid. The original lease term had already expired, but Americar continued to lease the offices on a monthly basis. Since they never left the place, the clauses in the original agreement were still valid even though the lease changed to a monthly basis. I.e. if you sign a lease contract and after the original contract is over, you continue to lease the same place, then the clauses from the original contract still apply.

The clause stated that Americar was liable for damages that took place on the leased premises or in their proximity, i.e. the area near their offices. The parking lot was considered to be in the proximity of Americar's offices.

Answer:

There are issues with Revenue recognition, Accrual basis of accounting and Cash basis of accounting.

Explanation:

The ethical issues are important to handle with care in business. The accountant has used accrual basis accounting technique in order to apply for a loan. The revised financial statements are prepared with accrual concept so that the company is successful in procuring loan. The revenue should be recognized when performance obligation is completed and the required services are rendered. The accrual concept states that the transaction should be recorded when it occurs regardless when the cash is actually received. Daryl has been involved in unethical practice as he has instructed his accountant to prepare revised financial statements to portray that the company's performance is good. It is an intention to deceive bank in order to procure loan.

Answer: $472,000

Explanation:

Deferred Tax Liability arises as a result of the different accounting methods used by Companies and by the Government for taxation.

Deferred tax liabilities are taxes that are owed to the Government due to the company using the Accrual system but as the Government uses the Cash basis, they have not yet recognised this tax.

The Tax Payable in Year 2 is;

= Reported Tax Expense -  increase in Deferred Tax liability

= 580,000 - (463,000 - 355,000)

= $472,000

Answer:

Break-even point in units=  14,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $60

Variable costs are $30 per unit

Fixed costs total $120,000.

Desired profit= $300,000

To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit)/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (120,000 + 300,000) / 30

Break-even point in units=  14,000 units

Answer:

the numbers are missing, so i looked for a similar question to fill in the blanks:

Trade Mart has recently had lackluster sales. The rate of inventory turnover has? dropped, and the merchandise is gathering dust. At the same time, competition has forced Trade Mart's suppliers to lower the prices that Trade Mart will pay when it replaces its inventory. It is now December 31, 2016, and the current replacement cost Trade Mart's ending inventory is $75,000 below what Trade Mart actually paid for the goods, which was $200,000.

Before any adjustments at the end of the? period, the Cost of Goods Sold account has a balance of $$820,000.

a. What accounting action should take in this​ situation?

the adjustment entry should be:

Dr Cost of goods sold 75,000

    Cr Inventory 75,000

b. The net realizable value of ending inventory is?

Ending inventory = $200,000 - $75,000 = $125,000

Answer:

A)Infant-industry argument

Explanation:

We are informed about a Supposed policy debate over whether the United States should impose trade restrictions on imported ball bearings. Whereby

Domestic producers of ball bearings send a lobbyist to the U.S. government to request that the government impose trade restrictions on imports of ball bearings.

In the case whereby, The lobbyist claims that the U.S. ball-bearing industry is new and cannot currently compete with foreign firms, the justifications the lobbyist was using to argue for the trade restriction on ball bearings is Infant-industry argument.

Infant-industry argument can be regarded as an economic rationale that provides protection for new industries that are yet to reach a certain economic scale like the existing industries, this theory offer protection to this new/developing industry from some form pressure as well as their products that can emerge from compitition from other mature industries.

Answer: (B) on the downward-sloping portion of its long-run average total cost curve.

Explanation:

The downward-sloping portion of a company's Long Run Average Total Cost(LRATC) curve is the part where increasing returns to scale is witnessed.

This is because the costs that are incurred by the company leads to higher proportional output thereby reducing the average cost and pulling the LRATC down.

In this scenario, the inputs doubled and the firm's level of production more than doubled which means that with outputs increasing more than costs, the Average cost is reducing and the slope is downward sloping.

Answer:

net income = $33,900

Explanation:

The T-accounts are missing, so I looked for a similar question:

Stasney indicates that at year-end, customers owe him $1,600 for accrued service revenue. These revenues have not been recorded.

Dr Accounts receivable 1,600

    Cr Service revenue 1,600

During the year, Stasney collected $4,000 service revenue in advance from customers, but he earned only $900 of that amount.

Dr Unearned revenue 900

    Cr Service revenue 900

Rent expense for the year was $2,400, and he used up $1,700 of the supplies.

Dr Rent expense 2,400

    Cr Prepaid rent 2,400

Dr Supplies expense 1,700

    Cr Supplies 1,700

Stasney determines that depreciation on his equipment was $5,000 for the year.

Dr Depreciation expense 5,000

    Cr Accumulated depreciation 5,000

At December 31, he owes his employee $1,200 accrued salary.

Dr Wages expense 1,200

    Cr Wages payable 1,200

Total expense for the year = $17,000 (paid wages) + $1,200 (accrued wages) + $800 (utilities) + $2,400 (rent) + $1,700 (supplies) + $5,000 (depreciation) = $28,100

total revenues = $59,500 (previously recorded) + $1,600 (unrecorded service revenue) + $900 (accrued service revenue) = $62,000

net income = $62,000 - $28,100 = $33,900

Answer:

a. Taxable income = $80,000

b. Taxable income = $77,600

c. Taxable income = $80,600

Explanation:

Taxable income refers to the amount of income that is used to determine the amount of tax that will be paid to the government by an individual or firm in given year. The taxable income is arrived at after all the relevant addition and allowable deductions have been made.

The requirements are therefore answered as follows:

a. What would their taxable income be if their itemized deductions totaled $28,000 instead of $16,500?

Note: See part a of the attached excel file see the effect on taxable income.

The itemized deductions total of $28,000 instead of $16,500 makes the taxable income to be $80,000.

In the attached excel file, the following calculations is used:

Qualified business income deduction = Qualified business income * Parentage of deduction allowed = $10,000 * 20% = $2,000

b. What would their taxable income be if they had $0 itemized deductions and $6,000 of for AGI deductions?

Note: See part b of the attached excel file for the calculations of the taxable income.

This makes the taxable income to be equal to $77,600.

c. Assume the original facts but now suppose the Jacksons also incurred a loss of $5,000 on the sale of some of their investment assets. What effect does the $5,000 loss have on their taxable income?

Note: See part c of the attached excel file for the calculations of the taxable income.

The loss of loss of $5,000 on the sale of some of their investment assets incurred by the Jacksons is capital loss.

For tax purposes, capital loss of can be deducted as a loss on tax return by tax payers with a maximum of $3,000 to be deducted per year.

Therefore, the Jacksons will deduct $3,000 as a capital loss from their tax return, and the effect of this is to reduce the taxable income by $3,000.

This makes the taxable income to be equal to $80,600.

Answer:

1. GAAP is the term used to indicate the whole body of FASB authoritative literature.  TRUE.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board are the authors of the GAAP and as such GAAP is used to indicate the whole body of their literature.

2. Any company claiming compliance with GAAP must comply with most standards and interpretations but does not have to follow the disclosure requirements.  FALSE.

To claim compliance with GAAP, all standards and interpretations including Disclosure requirements should be followed.

3. The primary governmental body that has influence over the FASB is the SEC.  TRUE.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is the Government body that is meant to oversee the application of Accounting standards and as such, they have influence over the FASB.

4. The FASB has a government mandate and therefore does not have to follow due process in issuing a standard. FALSE.

Even though they have a Government mandate, the FASB must follow due process when establishing principles so that people might be able to contribute to or criticize the guidelines should they please.

Answer:

pasensya na di ko alam ang sagot

Answer:

Please see below

Explanation:

a. Current ratio

= Total current asset / Total current liabilities

2017

Current asset. 890,400

Current liabilities 424,000

Current ratio = 890,400/424,000

= 2.1

2016 Current ratio

Current asset. 999,600

Current liabilities 357,000

Current ratio = 999,600/357,000

= 2.8

b. Earnings per share

= (Net income - Preference dividend) / Weighted average number of shares outstanding

2017

Net income. 166,830

Weighted Average number of shares outstanding 201,000

Earnings per share = $166,830/201,000

= $0.83

2016 Earnings per share

Net income $337,600

Weighted Average number of shares outstanding 211,000

Earnings per share = $337,600/211,000

= $1.6

c. Debt to asset ratio

= Total liabilities / Total assets

2017

Total liabilities 573,300

Total assets 1,950,000

= 573,300/1,950,000

= 0.29

2016 Debt to asset ratio

Total liabilities 552,132

Total assets 1,878,000

Debt to asset ratio = 552,132/1,878,000

= 0.29

d. Free cash flow

2017

Cash flow from operating activities 300,000

Less: capital expenditure (271,000)

Free cash flow 29,000

2016 free Cash flow from operating activities

Free cash flow 452,600

Less: capital expenditure (246,500)

Free cash flow. 206,100

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Her vacation is expired and therefore invalid. Also she is requesting for a pay during this period which counters Amy form of sympathy for this employee. However, depending on the relationship the employee has with her employer, there might be a compromise especially if the employee really does need the vacation as she may be burned out or may have postponed vacation till expiration for the interest of the company
