Answer:
9.80%
Explanation:
1,150 shares of stock in Natural chicken wings incorporation was purchased at a price of $43.46 per share
The dividend received is $1.01 per share
Today the stock is sold at a price of $46.71
Therefore, the total percentage return on this investment can be calculated as follows
= ($46.71-$43.46+$1.01/$43.46) × 100
= $4.26/$43.46 × 100
= 0.0980× 100
= 9.80%
Hence the total percentage return on this investment is 9.80%
A project with an initial cost of $51,400 is expected to generate annual cash flows of $16,910 for the next 5 years. What is the project's internal rate of return
Answer:
19.27%
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested
IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 0 = $-51,400
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $16,910

Timmy Company's comparative balance sheet at January 31, 2017, and 2016. reports the following (in millions):
Three situations about Timmy Company's issuance of stock and declaration and payment of dividends during the year ended January 31, 2017.
follow. Read the requirements.
Begin by reviewing the labels for the change in stockholders' equity and then enter the amounts for each situation. (Enter an amount in each input area. Input a "0" when there is no amount to be entered. Enter amount millions. Use a minus sign or parentheses when entering net losses or numbers to be subtracted.)
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016
Add: Issuance of stock
Net income
Less: Dividends declared
Net loss
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017
For each situation, use the accounting equation and the statement of retained earnings to compute the amount of Timmy's net income or net loss during the year ended January 31 2017.
1. Timmy issued $13 million of stock and declared no dividends.
2. Timmy issued no stock but declared dividends of $17 million.
3. Timmy issued $20 million of stock and declared dividends of $27 million.
Answer:
The Accounting Equation states that;
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
Equity as at 2016 = Assets - Liabilities
= 50 - 13
= $37 million
Equity as at 2017 = Assets - Liabilities
= 77 - 18
= $59 million
1. Timmy issued $13 million of stock and declared no dividends.
The Net Income ( loss) will be the figure that gives the Statement of Equity a figure of $59 million.
Net Income = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016 - Issuance of stock
= 59 - 37 - 13
= $9 million
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016 ................ 37
Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 13
Net income ......................................................................9
Less: Dividends declared......................................................0
Net loss.......................................................................................0
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59
2. Timmy issued no stock but declared dividends of $17 million.
Net Income (loss) = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016 + Dividends Declared
= 59 - 37 + 17
= $39 million
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016 ................ 37
Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 0
Net income ......................................................................39
Less: Dividends declared......................................................(17)
Net loss.......................................................................................0
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59
3. Timmy issued $20 million of stock and declared dividends of $27 million.
Net Income (loss) = Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017 - Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016 + Dividends Declared - Issuance of stock
= 59 - 37 + 27 - 20
= $29 million
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2016 ................ 37
Add: Issuance of stock ......................................................... 20
Net income ......................................................................29
Less: Dividends declared......................................................(27)
Net loss.......................................................................................0
Total stockholders' equity, January 31, 2017...................59
Valentine is a producer in a monopoly industry. Her demand curve and total cost curve are given as follows: Q = 160 - 4P ; TC = 4Q. The price of her product will be:
Answer: b) $22
Explanation:
A Monopoly will maximise output where Marginal Revenue equals Marginal cost.
Marginal revenue (MR) is the differential of Total revenue.
= (dTR/dQ ) 40Q - 0.25Q^2
= 40 - 0.5Q
Marginal Cost is the differential of Total cost.
= dTC/dQ
= 4
MR = MC
40 - 0.5Q = 4
36 = 0.5Q
Q = 72 units is the maximising quantity.
Price
Q = 160 - 4P
72 = 160 - 4P
4P = 160 -72
4P = 88
P = $22
You are saving money for a down payment on a house. Suppose you want to have total savings of $20,000 in 10 years time and you have currently $5,000. What annual interest rate do you need to earn on your initial investment, assuming you contribute no additional savings?
Answer:
14.87%
Explanation:
we have to use the future value formula to solve this question:
future value = present value x (1 + rate)ⁿ
you need to save $20,000 in 10 years (this is your future value)
currently you have $5,000 which will be $5,000 x (1 + r)¹⁰
$20,000 = $5,000 x (1 + r)¹⁰
(1 + r)¹⁰ = $20,000 / $5,000
(1 + r)¹⁰ = 4
¹⁰√(1 + r)¹⁰ = ¹⁰√4
1 + r = 1.1487
r = 1.1487 - 1
r = 0.1487 = 14.87%

How much total depreciation and amortization expense did Patnode record during 2015?
a. $10,000
b. $6,000
c. $3,000
d. $5,000
Answer:
d. $5,000
Explanation:
Patnode's information is missing, so I looked it up. I found the balance sheet for 2014 and 2015. Hope that it is the same question:
total depreciation expense for 2015 = change in accumulated depreciation (2015 - 2014) + change in accumulated amortization (2015 - 2014) = ($3,000 - $0) + ($3,000 - $1,000) = $3,000 + $2,000 = $5,000
Skor Co. leased equipment to Douglas Corp. on January 2, 2011 for a 7-year period expiring December 31, 2017. Equal payments under the lease are $600,000 and are due on January 2 of each year. The first payment was made on January 2, 2011. The cost of the equipment is $2,400,000. The lease is appropriately accounted for as a sales-type lease. The present value of the lease payments is $2,800,000. What is the effect on Cost of Goods Sold for the year ended December 31, 2011?
Answer:
$2,400,000
Explanation:
Always remember that in the case of a sales type lease, the lessor at the inception of the sales type lease would recognize sale of equipment at a price of present value of the lease payments which is $2,800,000 and cost of goods sold will be recorded at cost of equipment which is $2,400,000.
Case 1: If the equipment was an inventory then the double entry would be as under:
Recording of Sales:
Dr Lease Asset $2,800,000
Cr Sale of Inventory $2,800,000
Recording of inventory out:
Dr Cost of Goods Sold $2,400,000
Cr Inventory Account $2,400,000
Case 2: If the equipment was fixed asset then the double entry would be as under:
Recording of Sales:
Dr Lease Asset $2,800,000
Cr Sale of Fixed Asset $2,800,000
Recording of equipment handing over to customer:
Dr Cost of Goods Sold $2,400,000
Cr Equipment Account $2,400,000
In both of the cases the cost of goods sold will be $2,400,000.
A manufacturing company that has only one product has established the following standards for its variable manufacturing overhead. The company bases its variable manufacturing overhead standards on direct labor-hours.
Standard hours per unit of output 5.30 DLHs
Standard variable overhead rate $ 11.66 per DLH
The following data pertain to operations for the last month:
Actual direct labor-hours 8,800 DLHs
Actual total variable manufacturing overhead cost $ 96,000
Actual output 1,500 units
What is the variable overhead efficiency variance for the month?
a. $6,883 U
b. $6,883 F
c. $9,911 U
d. $3,252 U
Answer:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $9,911 unfavorable
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Standard hours per unit of output 5.30 DLHs
Standard variable overhead rate $ 11.66 per DLH
Actual direct labor-hours 8,800 DLHs
Actual output 1,500 units
To calculate the variable overhead efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*Standard rate
Standard quantity= 5.3*1,500= 7,950
Variable overhead efficiency variance= (7,950 - 8,800)*11.66
Variable overhead efficiency variance= $9,911 unfavorable
Cobe Company has already manufactured 17,000 units of Product A at a cost of $20 per unit. The 17,000 units can be sold at this stage for $490,000. Alternatively, the units can be further processed at a $300,000 total additional cost and be converted into 5,400 units of Product B and 11,400 units of Product C. Per unit selling price for Product B is $104 and for Product C is $56.Prepare an analysis that shows whether the 17,000 units of Product A should be processed further or not.

Answer:
Income (loss) $490,000 $928,000
Net incremental income= $438,000
17,000 units of product A should be processed further.
Explanation:
Preparation of analysis that shows whether 17,000 units of Product A should be processed further or not.
Sell Process further
Sales $490,000 $1,228,000
Relevant costs
Additional cost to process further $300,000
Total relevant costs $300,000
Income (loss) $490,000 $928,000
Calculation for sales after processing further
Sales after processing further = (5,400 x $104) + (11,900 x $56)
Sales after processing further= $561,600 + $666,400
Sales after processing further= $1,228,000
Calculation for Net incremental income
Net incremental income = $928,000 - $490,000
Net incremental income= $438,000
Therefore 17,000 units of product A should be processed further.
On January 1, 2018, Bishop Company issued 10% bonds dated January 1, 2018, with a face amount of $19.3 million. The bonds mature in 2027 (10 years). For bonds of similar risk and maturity, the market yield is 12%. Interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your intermediate calculations to the nearest whole dollar.) Required: 1. Determine the price of the bonds at January 1, 2018. 2. Prepare the journal entry to record the bond issuance by Bishop on January 1, 2018. 3. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on June 30, 2018, using the effective interest method. 4. Prepare the journal entry to record interest on December 31, 2018, using the effective interest method.
Answer:
1) $19.3 million in bonds issued January 1, 2018
coupon rate 10%, semiannual 5% interest
maturity = 10 years x 2 = 20 periods
market interest rate = 12% / 2 = 6% semiannual
1) market price of the bonds:
PV of face value = $19,300,000 / (1 + 6%)²⁰ = $6,017,831.23
PV of coupon payments = $965,000 x 11.470 (PV annuity factor, 6%, 20 periods) = $11,068,550
market price = $17,086,381.23 ≈ $17,086,381
2) January 1, 2018, bonds issued at a discount
Dr Cash 17,086,381
Dr Discount on bonds payable 2,213,619
Cr Bonds payable 19,300,000
3) June 30, 2018, first coupon payment
Dr Interest expense 1,025,183
Cr Cash 965,000
Cr Discount on bonds payable 60,183
amortization of bond discount = ($17,086,381 x 6%) - $965,000 = $1,025,182.86 - $4,860,000 = $60,182.86 ≈ $60,183
4) December 31, 2018, second coupon payment
Dr Interest expense 1,028,794
Cr Cash 965,000
Cr Discount on bonds payable 63,794
amortization of bond discount = ($17,146,564 x 6%) - $965,000 = $1,028,793.84 - $965,000 = $63,793.84 ≈ $63,794
The manager at Tom's Taxidermy expects to sell units at each unit. In order for the manager to breakeven, the manager must sell units. What is the margin of safety in dollars?
The manager at Tom's Taxidermy expects to sell 900 units at $80 each unit. In order for the manager to breakeven, the manager must sell 100 units. What is the margin of safety in dollars?
Answer:
$64,000
Explanation:
Given that, the margin of safety is a term that describes the disparity between the actual sales volume and the breakeven volume.
In this case, Tom's Taxidermy expects to sell 9,00 units at $80 each and their breakeven volume is 100 units, the margin of sales, in dollars, is:
MS = ( 900 - 100) * $80
MS = 800 * $80
= $64,000
Therefore, the right answer as Margin of Safety in dollars = $64,000
g. How does the equation for valuing a bond change if semiannual payments are made? Find the value of a 10-year, semiannual payment, 10% coupon bond if the nominal rd 13%. Ehrhardt, Michael C.. Corporate Finance: A Focused Approach (p. 236). Cengage Learning. Kindle Edition.
Answer:
$834.73
Explanation:
the market value of the bonds is calculated by adding the present value of its maturity value (face value) + the present value of its coupon payments. The discount rate will be the market rate instead of the coupon rate:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 6.5%)²⁰ = $283.80
PV of coupon payments = $50 x 11.01851 (PV annuity factor, 6.5%, 20 periods) = $550.93
the bond's market value = $283.80 + $550.93 = $834.73

The ratio of the profit, cost of materials and labour in the production of an article is 5 : 7: 13 respectively. If the cost of materials is GH¢ 840 more than that of labour. find the total cost of producing the article.
Note: GH¢ stands for Ghana Cedis
The problem formulation is HEAVILY INCORRECT.
One part of the condition says that the cost of materials and the labor are 7x and 13x respectively,
where x is their common measure, a positive value.
The other part says that the cost of materials (7x) is 840 MORE than that of labor (13x).
It can not be so, BECAUSE it can NEVER be so.

On January 1, 2018, Gibson Corporation entered into a four-year operating lease. The payments were as follows: $26,000 for 2018, $20,500 for 2019, $18,000 for 2020, and $14,500 for 2021. What is the correct amount of total lease expense for 2019
Answer: $19,750
Explanation:
The Annual Lease expense is the average of the lease over the 4 year period.
Annual Lease Expense = Total lease expense / number of years
= (26,000 + 20,500 + 18,000 + 14,500) / 4
= 79,000 / 4
= $19,750
Company A is considering a merger with Company B. A has 43,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $32 a share. B has 12,800 shares outstanding priced at $44 a share. The merger is expected to create $5,400 of synergy. What will be the total value of the merged firm?
A) $568,600
B) $1,376,000
C) $446,073
D) $563,200
E) $1,381,400
Answer: $1381400
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Company A is considering a merger with Company B and that A has 43,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $32 a share while B has 12,800 shares outstanding priced at $44 a share and the merger is expected to create $5,400 of synergy.
The total value of the merged firm will be:
= (43,000 × $32) + (12,800 × $44) + $5,400 - $563,200
= $1,376,000 + $563,200 + $5,400 - $563,200
= $1,944,600 - $563,200
= $1,381,400
The coupon rate on a debt issue is 6%. If the yield to maturity on the debt is 9%, what is the after-tax cost of debt in the weighted average cost of capital if the firm's tax rate is 34%
Answer:
Weighted average cost of capital= 5.94%
Explanation:
The cost of debt is the required rate of return payable to investors in the debt instruments of a company. These investors include providers of long term debt finance to the company.
The cost of debt finance can determined by working out the yield to maturity on debt with adjustment for tax.
It is noteworthy that debt finance affords the company a tax savings advantage because interest expense incurred on the use of debt of are tax deductible expense.
After-tax cost of debt = (1- Tax rate) × before-tax cost of debt
Before tax cost of debt = 9%
Tax rate = 34%
After-tax cost of debt = (1-0.34) × 9% = 5.94%
After-tax cost of debt = 5.94%
Weighted average cost of capital= 5.94%

2.Privacy goes hand in hand with security, but many of the activities of information security analysts seem to be an invasion of privacy. Discuss how employers can justify the use of tools, such as Encase by Guidance Software.
Answer And Explanation:
Privacy and security do work in hand in hand and complement each other in ensuring information security .By privacy we mean data that should not be available to the public and is only privy to individuals or organizations that can be attributed to ownership or use of the data. Private data could be such things as documents, photos, emails or tax returns of a person. security on the other hand are measures taken both technological or otherwise to protect the data and only give access to who should have access to the data example the owner of the photos. More specifically, security on this sense measures or comprises how secure our data is from external and undesired/unauthorized access bordering on such things as terms of network security,hardware security or data security.
Now for a security analyst to be able to protect your data, there is need to have access to your data and be able to keep track of data stored and packet flow. This could be argued to contradict privacy of data but it can be concluded that the security analyst cannot protect your data if he is not able to scan and keep track of data and therefore have access to the data.
It therefore goes to say that there must be a balance between security and privacy as they are both complementary. Encase by Guidance Software is a good example of a security software that somewhat compromises security to achieve maximum security. It is known to permeate all private data of employees in organization in the bid to keep track and protect against any malicious attacks or illegal activity. In other words, while it may seem like it violates privacy, it balances it with full protection

The current yield is defined as the annual interest on a bond divided by par value true or false?
Answer: False
Explanation:
The Current Yield is calculated by dividing the annual interest on a bond by the current price and not the par value. This way the current price of the bond is the one that matters.
The Current Yield is calculated based on the logic of what the investor can expect as returns for purchasing the bond at the current rate and then holding it for a year or less and so is not the return that can be expected if the bond is held till maturity.

Norek Corp. owned 70% of the voting common stock of Thelma Co. On January 2, 2018, Thelma sold a parcel of land to Norek. The land had a book value of $42,000 and was sold to Norek for $75,000. Thelma's reported net income for 2018 was $200,000. What is the non-controlling interest's share of Thelma's net income?
Answer:
$50,100
Explanation:
The computation of the non-controlling interest share is shown below:
= {Net income - (Sale value - book value)} × non owning percentage
= {$200,000 - ($75,000 - $42,000)} × 0.30
= ($200,000 - $33,000) × 0.30
