The Senate, the legislature of the fictional country of Romange, is considering legislation that will generate benefits of $30 million and costs of $34 million. For perspective, Romange's population is 50 million. Passing the legislation is _____________ , and if everyone in Romange shared equally in both its benefits and its costs, the Senate will vote ____________ the legislation. If the costs of the legislation are concentrated among a few people instead of widespread among the population, those people will be willing to spend up to ___________ lobbying the Senate against the legislation. (Note: Assume that the benefits are widespread; therefore, you can ignore them in the calculations of the few who experience the costs.) The more widely spread are the benefits of the legislation, the _____________is the likelihood of lobbying for the legislation by those who will incur its benefits.
Suppose that, as before, the costs of the legislation are concentrated among a small group, but the benefits of the legislation are concentrated among another small group, and the Senate is responsive to lobbying. The people who will benefit from the legislation will be willing to spend on lobbying up to______________ , in which case the Senate will likely vote ___________ the legislation.
Answer:
Passing the legislation is INEFFICIENT, and if everyone in Romange shared equally in both its benefits and its costs, the Senate will vote AGAINST the legislation.
Costs are higher than benefits, so it should be rejected.If the costs of the legislation are concentrated among a few people instead of widespread among the population, those people will be willing to spend up to 34 MILLION lobbying the Senate against the legislation.
The more widely spread are the benefits of the legislation, the LOWER is the likelihood of lobbying for the legislation by those who will incur its benefits.
Sadly, when public goods tend to benefit everyone equally, people do not pay attention to them. One sad example, is the current state of the country's road system which is probably the worst among developed nations. Since everyone benefits form roads, everyone complains, but the vast majority of the people do not do anything but complain to themselves or their families when travelling. This is something that has been going on for decades now, and really very few people care. Even public health care, which is one of the most basic duties of a government is something that only a few really pay attention to. Only in Switzerland (which subsidizes and deducts all health spending), does a similar system works. In no other developed, or even in most developing nations would their citizens even consider not having 100% public health care.Which best explains why there are many job opportunities in the Lodging pathway?

If the cross-price elasticity of demand between Good A and Good B is 3, the price of Good B increases, and the price elasticity of demand for Good B is inelastic, we can expect to see a(n) ________ change in the quantity demanded for Good A. Group of answer choices
Answer:
INCREASE
There are no options available, but since the cross price elasticity of demand is positive, that means that goods A and B are substitute products. An increase in the price of good B will increase the quantity demanded for good A. If the cross price elasticity had been negative, then they would be complement goods, and an increase in the price of one of them would decrease the quantity demanded of both.

Last week, an investigative reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper discovered that the doctors conducting clinical trials of a new cancer treatment drug are also the principal shareholders in Cancer Solutions Inc. (CSI). CSI is the company developing and attempting to market the drug. Upon being interviewed by federal authorities, the doctors acknowledged their conflict of interest but reported that they were sold the shares at a 75% discount by CSI's chief financial officer. The CFO was concerned that CSI might not be able to meet its annual performance objectives and in turn pay his anticipated multimillion-dollar bonus.
Does an agency conflict exist between CSI's CFO and the company's shareholders?
a. Yes; CSI's CFO engaged in unethical conduct to manipulate the firm's short-term earnings and improve the likelihood of receiving his annual bonus.

Darnell is buying salad and pizza for a company lunch. Suppose that a bowl of salad costs $4.00, and a slice of pizza costs $2.00. Let E be the amount in dollars that Darnell spends on salad and pizza. If Darnell buys S bowls of salad and P slices of pizza, then the total amount of money he spends ( E ) can be represented by the equation . Now rearrange the equation you wrote above so that P is written in terms of E and S. The quantity of pizza he buys can be represented by the equation . Suppose Darnell has $40.00 to spend on salad and pizza; that is, E=$40.00.
Complete the following table with values of S or P that make the equation true.
To complete the first row, determine the number of pizza slices Paolo can purchase with $40.00, when the number of salad bowls he purchases is 0.
Budget (Dollars) Salad (Bowls) Pizza (Slice)
40.00 0 _____
40.00 4 _____
40.00 _____ 0
Answer:
1. If Darnell buys S bowls of salad and P slices of pizza, then the total amount of money he spends ( E ) can be represented by the equation;
E = 4S + 2P
2. Now rearrange the equation you wrote above so that P is written in terms of E and S. The quantity of pizza he buys can be represented by the equation;
E = 4S + 2P
2P = E - 4S
P = (E - 4S)/2
3. Budget = $40.00. No salad purchased
Pizza = (E - 4S)/2
= (40 - 0)/2
= 20 pizzas
Budget = $40.00. 4 salads purchased
Pizza = (E - 4S)/2
= (40 - 4 * 4)/2
= 12 pizzas
Budget = $40.00. 0 Pizzas.
Salads = 40/4
= 10 salads
The following inventory valuation errors have been discovered for Knox Corporation:
The 2015 year-end inventory was overstated by $23,000
The 2016 year-end inventory was understated by $61,000
The 2017 year-end inventory was understated by $17,000
The reported income before taxes for Knox was:
Year: Income before Taxes:
2015 $138,000
2016 $254,000
2017 $168,000
Required:
Compute what income before taxes for 2015, 2016, and 2017 should have been after correcting for the errors.
Answer:
Income +/- inventory adjustment
2015: 138,000 - 23,000 = 115,000
2016: 254,000 + 61,000 = 315,000
2017: 168,000 + 17,000 = 185,000
Explanation:
Inventory Identity:
Beginning + Purchases = Ending + COGS
As the mistake is on the right side it compensates by the other component which is COGS
When the inventory is overstated this means COGS is understated.
We didn't record the cost of good sold thefore our gross profit is higher making the net income higher.
When the inventory is understated this means COGS is overstated.
We record more cost of goods sold thefore our gross profit is lower making the net income fewer as well.
Pooling has been used for a long time by businesses as a way to reduce risk. Imagine that years ago a small paint factory employed 200 people, each with an annual salary of $600/year. The factory owner knew from experience that 4 percent of workers were being injured each year, becoming unable to work. The factory owner decided to set up a fund to pay injured workers three months of salary to help their families and build good will with employees. The owner did not contribute to the injury fund. The workers themselves contributed a fixed amount each year to fund the plan. Answer the following questions (1 point each):_____.
1. How much did the owner need to collect from employees in total to fully fund the plan each year?
2. How much did each employee have to contribute each year to fully fund the plan?
3. What percentage of salary did each employee contribute to have an injury fund like this?
Answer:
1. Amount required to fund the plan = % of injured*Total employees* Annual salary
Amount required to fund the plan = 4%*200 people* $600
Amount required to fund the plan = $4800
2. Amount contributed by each employee = Amount required to fund the plan / Number of employees
Amount contributed by each employee = $4800/200
Amount contributed by each employee = $24
3. Percentage of salary = Amount contributed by each employee / Salary
Percentage of salary = 24/600
Percentage of salary = 0.04
Percentage of salary = 4%

R. J. Graziano Wholesale Corp. uses the LIFO method of inventory costing. In the current year, profit at R. J. Graziano is running unusually high. The corporate tax rate is also high this year, but it is scheduled to decline significantly next year. In an effort to lower the current year's net income and to take advantage of the changing income tax rate, the president of R. J. Graziano Wholesale instructs the plant accountant to recommend to the purchasing department a large purchase of inventory for delivery 3 days before the end of the year. The price of the inventory to be purchased has doubled during the year, and the purchase will represent a major portion of the ending inventory value.
Required:
a. What is the effect of this transaction on this year's and next year's income statement and income tax expense? Why?
b. If R. J. Graziano Wholesale had been using the FIFO method of inventory costing, would the president give the same directive?
c. Should the plant accountant order the inventory purchase to lower income? What are the ethical implications of this order?
Answer:
a. What is the effect of this transaction on this year's and next year's income statement and income tax expense? Why?
The inventory account is a permanent asset account in the balance sheet, so it doesn't matter if the company purchases all that it can during the last days of December, it will not affect the income statement, nor their tax liability for the current year. A company only recognizes cost of goods sold when the goods are actually sold, not when they are purchased.
Since the company uses the LIFO (last in, first out) inventory method, all it will do is increase the value of ending inventory which changes into beginning inventory next year. You can reduce next year's income more by purchasing the goods next year.
b. If R. J. Graziano Wholesale had been using the FIFO method of inventory costing, would the president give the same directive?
If the company used the FIFO method, the result will be the same. Inventory is not COGS, whether you use FIFO, LIFO weighted average, specific identification, or any other acronym that you might come up with. At beginning of the year, inventory must be average to determine beginning inventory. it might help to increase COGS a little, therefore, decreasing net income, but the effects shouldn't be significant.
c. Should the plant accountant order the inventory purchase to lower income? What are the ethical implications of this order?
It is useless, and he should know it. The only implication is that this will help him realize his low IQ.
The last in first out is the common method specified by the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). It is the method used to maintain the account of inventory. It states that the recently purchased products are expensed at the first expense.
a. The inventory account is a permanent asset account in the balance sheet, so it doesn't matter if the company purchases all that it can during the last days of December, it will not affect the income statement, nor their tax liability for the current year. A company only recognizes the cost of goods sold when the goods are actually sold, not when they are purchased.

1. Task You work in the Ethics Department for ABC Company (ABC). Your department is dedicated to advising its employees about their ethical obligations in the corporate setting. You are an internal consultant who provides advice and most importantly, recommendations for action to employees of the firm. All communications you receive in this capacity are confidential. Luke, an employee of ABC, comes to you with the following scenario and asks for your advice. He wants to fully consider the situation. Your task is to advise and recommend a course of action based on the specified ethical lenses and facts as given. Below are the facts that Luke provides to you. ***** Luke has been asked to work on a project that involves developing land recently purchased by ABC to build an adult entertainment retail store. According to the plan, the land is located on the corner of the neighborhood where Owen, Luke’s brother, lives. Luke knows that as soon as the plans for the store are made public, property values for the surrounding neighborhood will decrease significantly. ABC plans to publicly announce the project one month from today. Luke is concerned about his obligations of confidentiality to his company. However, Luke is also very close to Owen, who recently told Luke that he received an offer to sell his house at an "okay" price given the current real estate market. Owen is considering selling but hasn’t made any final decision yet. He wonders if he might get a better offer a few years from now when the real estate market improves. What is the ethical issue, why is this an issue, and what should Luke do about it?
***** For assignment 3, prepare a memo, setting out your analysis and recommendations, that considers ONLY the following two theories: Golden Rule and Virtue Ethics.
Answer:
My answer is a little long, so you will probably need to summarize it.
The ethical issue here is that you work for a company that is about to open a store that will make the price of your brother's house to plummet. Your brother has the option to sell his house right now, but if you tell him to accept the offer, you will be breaching your employment duties.
Is your duty towards your brother more or less important than the duty towards the company?
We can analyze both possible outcomes:
You do not tell your brother and he does not sell his house. After the store is announced, your brother's house will decrease in value. That means that your brother will lose a lot of money, but you complied with the obligation of confidentiality that you have with your company. The downside is that once your brother knows about it, he will hate you for the rest of his life. And the hatred will probably not be limited to only your brother, most, if not all of your family will be very unpleased and terribly mad at you. Your family will probably wonder why your parents didn't abort you?, or are you adopted?, or do you simply hate humanity? On the other hand, you decide that you value your brother and whole family, and you decide to tell him to accept the offer. You will have breached your confidentiality obligation towards the company, but you will have literally saved your brother's financial situation, and you will have saved any type of relationship that you have with your family. Will the company be hurt by your decision? No, it will not make any difference to them. They are announcing the decision in just a few days, so anything that you tell your brother will not make any difference. Since your brother will try to sell his house, he will keep the information to himself, since telling other people will only ruin any possible sale.If we follow the golden rule: do to others what you would like them to do to you, then obviously we should tell Owen about our company's plans. If we were Owen, that information would be really important for us.
If we follow virtue ethics, then it gets a little bit more complicated. Is telling Owen about the new store a virtuous action? Would a virtuous person do it? To be honest, I'm not really sure what exactly is a virtuous person.
What I understand is that virtue ethics is based on who you are, and not what you really will do. So, the question here would be: Are you a good (or virtuous) brother? Are you a good (or virtuous) employee? In this case, you cannot be a virtuous employee and a virtuous brother at the same time, so it depends on which you value the most. Going back to the possible outcomes, I would prefer to be a virtuous brother in this case.
What was the intrinsic value of SmileWhite Co. stock when the analyst was evaluating the stock (that is in year 2008)
Answer: $28.96
Explanation:
Using the Dividend discount model, the intrinsic value will be a sum of the present values of the dividends in addition to the present value when the dividends become constant.
First use CAPM to calculate the required return
= Risk free rate + Beta * (market return - risk free rate)
= 4.5% + 1.15 * (14.5% - 4.5%)
= 16%
The required return will be used to discount the dividends.
2009 dividends = 1.72 * 1.12 = $1.93
2010 = 1.93 * 1.12 = $2.16
2011 = 2.16 * 1.12 = $2.42
Dividends grow at 9% from 2011
Stock terminal value in 2011 = (2.42 * 1.09) / (16% - 9%) = $37.68
[tex]= \frac{1.93}{1.16} + \frac{2.16}{1.16^{2} } + \frac{2.42}{1.16^{3} } +\frac{37.68}{1.16^{3}}\\\\= 28.959397679[/tex]
= $28.96

3. The last dividend paid by New Technologies was an annual dividend of $1.40 a share. Dividends for the next 3 years will be increased at an annual rate of 8 percent. After that, dividends are expected to increase by 3 percent each year. The discount rate is 16 percent. What is the current value of this stock
Answer:
$12.60
Explanation:
The computation of the current value of the stock is shown below:-
= $1.40 × (1.08) ÷ 1.16 + 1.40 × (1.08)^2 ÷ (1.16)^2 + 1.40 × (1.08)^3 ÷ (1.16)^3 + 1.40 × (1.08)^3 × (1.03) ÷ (0.16 - 0.03) × (1.16)^3
= $1.3034 + $1.2136 + $1.1299 + $8.9520
= $12.60
Therefore for computing the current value of stock we simply solved the above equation.
Suppose the classical linear model assumptions hold, and the population model for log(wage) is given by:
Answer:
Throughout the clarification segment down, the definition including its concern is explained.
Explanation:
The query presented seems to be incomplete. Please notice the full issue attachment below.
The classical model relies on either the calculation as well as assumption of "finite sample," suggesting that perhaps the amount of measurements "n" is defined.Present work does not affect salary seems to be:
⇒ H₀ : B₃ = 0
One side of the alterbate theory would be that ceteris paribus, duration at current employment seems to harm incomes.It is possible to state everything as:
⇒ H₁ : B₃<0
Organizations are often divided into units or departments. Which of these is NOT a common way to organize a company?
Group of answer choices
By function
By product
By employee compensation
By customer
Answer: By employee compensation
Explanation:
In an organization, it should be noted that an organization can be grouped based on the roles performed e.g in an organization, you can find he employees that are related to accounting of the company in the account department, employees involved in sales in the sales department etc.
Employee can also be grouped based on the product sold or based on customers but employees can't be grouped based on employee compensation. Employee compensation is the compensation that an employee gets for working for a particular company.
In an example, a local church is made up of people who are very different in their lifestyles and their stages of life. Mary is a 23-year-old single parent who earns the minimum wage. Jonathan is 60 years old, extremely wealthy, and works because he enjoys it. Jane is a 45-year-old lawyer who earns well and is well-respected in her profession. She is extremely career-oriented and is proud of her achievements. Which of the following do you think would motivate Jonathan the most?
a. safety
b. physiological
c. self-actualization
d. growth
e. esteem
Answer:
C) Self actualization
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed about example of alocal church is made up of people who are very different in their lifestyles and their stages of life, we are told if Mary who is is a 23-year-old single parent who earns the minimum wage. Jonathan is 60 years old, extremely wealthy, and works because he enjoys it. Jane is a 45-year-old lawyer who earns well and is well-respected in her profession. She is extremely career-oriented and is proud of her achievements.
In this case, self actualization would motivate Jonathan the most. This is because self actualization can be regarded as self fulfilment, it is when one fully realize his/her potential and gives appreciation, and here
Jonathan is 60 years old, and described as extremely wealthy, and works because he enjoys it. Hence self actualization is the best answer.
Consider the following data on U.S. GDP:
Year Nominal GDP (Billions of dollars) GDP Deflator (Base year 2009)
2015 17,947 109.8
1995 7,664 75.3
The growth rate of nominal GDP between 1995 and 2015 was _____, and the growth rate of the GDP deflator between 1995 and 2015 was _____.
Measured in 2009 prices, real GDP was _____ billion in 1995 and _____ billion in 2015.
The growth rate of real GDP between 1995 and 2015 was _____.
The growth rate of nominal GDP between 1995 and 2015 was _____ than the growth rate of real GDP.
Answer:
The growth rate of nominal GDP between 1995 and 2015 was 4.35%
Growth rate over a period is calculated as;
= 100 * (((Current variable/initial variable)^1/n) - 1)
= 100 * (((17,947 / 7,664) ^1/20) -1)
= 4.35%
Growth rate of the GDP deflator between 1995 and 2015 was 1.90%.
= 100 * (((109.8/75.3)^1/20) -1)
= 1.90%
Measured in 2009 prices, real GDP was $ 10,177.95 billion in 1995 and $ 16,345.17 billion in 2015.
Real GDP = (Nominal GDP / GDP Deflator) * 100
1995 = (7,664/75.3) * 100
= $ 10,177.95
2015 = (17,947/109.8) * 100
= $ 16,345.17
The growth rate of real GDP between 1995 and 2015 was 2.397% .
= 100 x (((16,345.17 / 10,177.95)^1/20) -1)
= 2.397%
The growth rate of nominal GDP between 1995 and 2015 was more than the growth rate of real GDP.
Nominal GDP growth was 4.35% whilst Real GDP was 2.397%.
Broussard is already at full capacity, so its assets must grow at the same rate as projected sales. At the end of 2019, current liabilities were $1.4 million, consisting of $450,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $450,000 of accruals. The after-tax profit margin is forecasted to be 4%, and the forecasted payout ratio is 45%. Use the AFN equation to forecast Broussard's additional funds needed for the coming year. Enter your answer in dollars. For example, an answer of $1.2 million should be entered as $1,200,000.
Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
Answer: $412,600
Explanation:
AFN = Increase in assets - Increase in Liabilities - Addition to Retained Earnings
Increase in Assets
= 5,000,000 * 15%
= $750,000
Increase in Liabilities
Only use Accruals and Accounts Payable
= (450,000 + 450,000) * 15%
= $135,000
Additional to Retained Earnings
= After tax Profit
= 9,200,000 * 4%
= $368,000
Addition to retained earnings = 368,000 * ( 1 - payout ratio)
= 368,000 * ( 1 - 45%)
= $202,400
Additional Funds Needed (AFN) = 750,000 - 135,000 - 202,400
= $412,600

SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 3,487 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $1.55 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $186 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 32 percent of total cost per pound.
a. What is the optimal order quantity of cotton? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Optimal order quantity pounds
b. How frequently should the company order cotton? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Company orders once every months
c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 1-Jul, when should SYM place the order?
17-Jun
1-Jul
15-Jul
d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Number of orders times
e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Annual holding cost $ per year
f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?
Annual ordering cost $
g. If the annual interest cost is only 5 percent, how will it affect the annual number of orders, the optimal batch size, and the average inventory?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The optimal order quantity can be calculated as:
= √2DS/H
where
D = 3 × 12 × 3487 × 0. 75
= 94149
Total cost incurred during purchase
= $1.55 + $0.70
= $2.25
Setup cost (S) = $186
Holding cost
= 32% × $2.25
= 0.32 × $2.25
= $0.72
Optimal order quantity
= √(2 × 94149 × 186)/0.72
= 6974.50
b. This will be calculated as:
Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.50
The company should order cotton 13.5 times per year.
c. Since the first order is needed on 1-July and lead time is 2 weeks, SYM should place the order before 17th June.
d. This will be:
= Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.5 orders
e. The resulting annual holding cost will be:
= 0.72 × (6974.50/2)
= 0.72 × 3487.25
= $2510.82
f. The resulting annual ordering will be:
= 94149/6974.50 × $186
= 13.5 × $186
= $2511

C. The full sales price of the land, $9,250, would be shown as a cash inflow from operating activities on the statement of cash flows
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Sales = $27000
Less: sales returned = -$660
Less: discount at 2% = ($27000 - $660) × 2% = -$526.8
Net sales = $25813.2
b. Net sales = $25813.2
Less: cost of goods sold = $15000 - $400 = -$14600
Gross profit = $11213.2
Operating expense:
Less: Selling and administrative expenses = -$2835
Operating income = $8378.2
Non-operating items:
Less: Interest expense = ($200
Add: Gain on land Sales = $900
Net Income= $9078.2
c. The interest expense be shown on the statement of cash flows in the operating expenses section. It'll be recorded in the operating activities.
d. The sale of the land would be under the investing activity as it's capital asset of the business. Therefore, the full sales price of the land, $9,250, would be shown as a cash inflow from investing activities on the statement of cash flows.
Option B is the correct answer.
