Consider an individual who currently earns $20,000 as an unskilled laborer. Suppose that by taking courses full-time at a community college for one year, the person can qualify for a more skilled job paying $23,000 that is guaranteed to last for 10 years (after which the person would retire). Assume the cost of tuition and books at the community college for one year is $2,000 and that the current interest rate is 6%. Is this a good investment

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

investing in these college courses will increase this individual's wealth by $20,080, so it is a good idea

Explanation:

First of all, education is always a good investment. But we still need to analyse this situation like any other project:

initial outlay year 0 = $2,000 tuition costs

cash flows years 1 - 10 = $23,000 - $20,000 = $3,000

NPV = - initial outlay + PV of cash flows

PV of cash flows = $3,000 x 7.3601 (PV annuity factor, 6%, 10 periods) = $22,080

NPV = -$2,000 + $22,080 = $20,080

Question 2. Suppose the mean age of video game players is 28, the standard deviation is 9 years, and the distribution is bell shaped. To assist a video game company’s marketing department in obtaining demographics to increase sales, determine the proportion of players who are
a. between 19 and 28
b. between 28 and 37
c. older than 37

Answers

Answer:

0.34134 ; 0.84134; 0.15866

Explanation:

Given that:

Mean (m) = 28

Standard deviation (s) = 9

Proportion of players;

a. between 19 and 28

P(x < 28) - P(x < 19)

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

[Z = (28 - 28) / 9] - [Z = (19 - 28) /9]

P(Z < 0) - P(Z < - 1)

0.5 - 0.15866 [Z probability calculator]

= 0.34134

b. between 28 and 37

P(x < 37) - P(x < 28)

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

[Z = (37 - 28) / 9] - [Z = (28 - 28) /9]

P(Z < 1) - P(Z < 0)

0.84134 - 0 [Z probability calculator]

= 0.84134

c. older than 37

P(x > 37)

Z = (x - m) / s

Z = (37 - 28) / 9

Z = 9/9 = 1

P(Z > 1) = 1 - P(Z < 1)

P(Z > 1) = 1 - 0.84134

P(Z > 1) = 1 - 0.84134

P(Z > 1) = 0.15866

Smart Industries leases equipment on January 1, 2016. The finance lease has an 11-year term, and an implicit rate of 5%. The equipment has a list price of $300,000 and the lease agreement requires a $20,000 down payment when the lease is signed plus 10 annual payments of $36,261.28 on December 31 of each year of the lease. After Smart Industries makes its payment on December 31, 2018, what is its remaining lease obligation (carrying value) for the equipment

Answers

Answer:

$234,364.37

Explanation:

Lease obligation = Present value of remaining Lease payment

Present Value Of An Annuity = C*[1-(1+i)^-n]/i]

Present Value of Annuity = $36261.28 * [1-(1+0.05)^-8 /0.05]  

Present Value of Annuity = $36261.28 * [1-(1.05)^-8 /0.05]    

Present Value of Annuity = $36261.28 * [(0.3232)] /0.05

Present Value of Annuity = $234,364.37

Hence, its remaining lease obligation (carrying value) for the equipment is $234,364.37

Which scenario yields the highest present​ value? Would your preference change if you used a ​% interest​ rate?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. In the case when the rate of interest is 6%

So, the present value is

1. For at the end of eight years, the present value of $7,000 is

= $7,000 × 6.20979

= $434,68.53 or $43,469

2. The lumpsum now is $45,000

3. The eight years from now is

= $75,000 × 0.62741

= $47,00,55.75 or $47,056

Thus, the highest present value = $47,056

2.   In the case when the rate of interest is 12%

1.  For at the end of eight years, the present value of $7,000 is

= $7,000 × 4.96764

= $34,773.48 or $34,773

2. The lumpsum now is $45,000

3. The eight years from now is

= $75,000 × 0.40388

= $30,291

Thus, the highest present value = $45,000

Answer:

The statement that is not true of this ceremony is:

F. it is essentially about the individual rather than the community

Explanation:

The focus of this communal rite of passage is not the individual but the community because during the rite, the sense of the individual is replaced by the sense of the community.  It instils in the initiates a sense that they are no longer individuals but members of the community with some rights and privileges.  Community values are communicated through a sophisticated system of beliefs and practices that affirm sacred cycles.

Your healthy 63-year-old neighbor is about to retire and comes to you for advice. From talking with her, you find out she was planning on taking all the money out of her company’s retirement plan and investing it in bond mutual funds and money market funds. What advice should you give her? Reilly, Frank K.; Brown, Keith C.. Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management (Text Only) (p. 56). Cengage Textbook. Kindle Edition.

Answers

Answer:

Both mutual funds and money market funds are similar in the sense that they pool money from several investors in a variety of instruments. The difference is that money market funds pool the money in very liquid, short-term securities, while mutual funds do the same but in less liquid, longer-term securities.

The 63-year-old neighbor should therefore split the money around 60/40, 60% of the funds for mutual funds, in order to have long-term security, and 40% in the money market funds, in order to have quick cash available when needed.

Billie Bob purchased a used camera (five-year property) for use in his sole proprietorship in the prior year. The basis of the camera was $2,400. Billie Bob used the camera in his business 60 percent of the time during the first year. During the second year, Billie Bob used the camera 40 percent for business use. Calculate Billie Bob's depreciation deduction during the second year, assuming the sole proprietorship had a loss during the year.

Answers

Answer:

Billie Bob

Depreciation deduction during the second year is:

$192.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Property basis value = $2,400

Useful life = 5 years

Depreciable rate per year = $2,400/5 = $480

Depreciation deduction during the second year = $480 * 40% = $192

b) The depreciation deduction for year 2 is limited to the 40% business use.  This implies that Billie Bob cannot claim the 100% depreciation of $480 for the property since he could only use it 40% for his business.

In 2017, Kerry Corp's financial statement showed accrued losses on disposal of unused plant facilities of $3,600,000. The facilities were sold in December 2018 and a $3,600,000 loss was recognized for tax purposes then. Also in 2018, Kerry Corp's paid $150,000 for a two-year life insurance policy for their CEO Kerry, and the company was the beneficiary. Assuming that the enacted tax rate is 35% in both 2017 and 2018.

Question: the amount reported as net deferred income taxes on Kerry's balance sheet at December 31, 2017 should be an asset or liability?

Answers

Answer:

$1,260,000  Asset

Explanation:

The amount that Kerry Corp should report is as follows:

Amount to be reported = $3,600,000 * 35% = $1,260,000  asset.

Deferred tax arises because of temporary differences which results in future deductible amount. Future deductible amount leads to reduce taxable income and will provide future economic benefits of the company.

Swifty Corporation borrowed $3240000 on January 1 on a 5-year, 12% note to help finance construction of the building. In addition, the company had outstanding all year a 10%, 3-year, $6380000 note payable and an 11%, 4-year, $12650000 note payable. What is the actual interest for Swifty Corporation

Answers

Answer:

Swifty Corporation

The actual interest for Swifty Corporation is:

$2,418,300

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Expenditures were

on March 1,          $6,380,000

on June 1,            $5,270,000

on December 31 $8,350,000

Borrowings:

on January 1 on a 5-year, 12% note = $3,240,000  Interest =   $388,800

Note payable, 10%, 3-year =                $6,380,000  Interest =  $638,000

Note payable, 11%, 4-year =               $12,650,000  Interest = $1,391,500

Total interest for Swifty Corporation = $2,418,300

b) Computation of interests:

12% note = $3,240,000 * 12% = $388,800

10% note = $6,380,000 * 10% = $638,000

11% note = $12,650,000 * 11% = $1,391,500

The present value factor for 5 years and 9% is 0.6499. $fill in the blank 2

Answers

Answer:

Rivera

a. Rivera's civil fraud penalty is:

$5,000 ($45,000 - $40,000)

b. Present value of Rivera's penalty is:

$3,249.50 ($5,000 * 0.6499)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Income tax underpayment = $45,000

Underpayment due to fraud = $40,000

Civil fraud penalty = $5,000 ($45,000 - 40,000)

Rate of return = 9%

Number of years = 5 years

Present value factor = 0.6499

b) The present value of the penalty represents the $5,000 discounted to its present value using the discount factor of 0.6499.  This results into $3,249.50 after 5 years at an interest rate of 9% per annum.

Jamie is single. In 2020, she reported $108,000 of taxable income, including a long-term capital gain of $5,800. What is her gross tax liability? (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.) (Use the tax rate schedules, long-term capital gains tax brackets.)
a. $19.478
b. $20143
c. $18,728
d. 516 200

Answers

Answer:

$19,478

Explanation:

Computation of tax liability

i. Total income excluding LTC gain = 108,000 - 5,800 = 102,200

ii. Tax on 102,200 as per single tax schedule = 14605.5+((102200-85525)*24%) = 18607.50

iii. Tax on LTC gain at 15% = 5800 * 15% = 870

So, Gross Tax liability = $18607.50 + $870 = $19477.50 = $19,478

Note: As per Long term capital gain schedule

During March 2019, Alaska Corporation recorded $266,000 of costs related to factory overhead. Alaska's overhead application rate is based on direct labor hours. The preset formula for overhead application estimated that $250,000 would be incurred, and 12,500 direct labor hours would be worked. During March, 12,500 hours were actually worked. Use this information to determine the amount of overhead over or under applied. Enter overapplied overhead as a negative number. (round

Answers

Answer:

Underapplied overhead= $16,000

Explanation:

Because the estimated and real direct labor hours are the same, the estimated overhead equals the allocated overhead.

Allocated overhead= $250,000

Actual overhead costs= $266,000

To calculate the over/under allocation, we need to use the following formula:

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 266,000 - 250,000

Underapplied overhead= $16,000

Explanation:

The formula for variable overhead spending variance provided below gives a clue on deriving the correct option.

variable overhead spending variance=actual variable spending  overhead-budgeted variable spending overhead.

$5450=$ 80,000-budgeted variable spending overhead

budgeted variable spending overhead=$80,000-$5450=$74550

standard overhead rate=budgeted variable spending overhead/Standard machine hours allowed for actual production

standard overhead rate=$74550 /3550=$21

variable overhead rate variance=( standard rate* Actual machine hrs)-(actual rate*Actual machine hrs)

actual rate=Actual variable manufacturing overhead costs incurred/Actual machine hours for the month=$80,000/4000=$20

variable overhead rate variance=($21*4000)-($20*4000)=$4000(favorable since actual is lower than standard,hence, cost savings)

Answers

Answer:

If the company repairs the units, income will increase by $15,200.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units= 11,600

Garcia can sell the units as is for $2 each or, it can repair the units at a total cost of $19,600 and then sell them for $5 each.

We will not take into account the original cost of production because they remain constant in both options.

Sell as-is:

Effect on income= 11,600*2= $23,200

Repair:

Effect on income= 11,600*5 - 19,600= $38,400

If the company repairs the units, income will increase by $15,200.

Analyze the following eight ratios for PNB’s financial statements:
Earning Assets, Return on Assets, Total Operating Income, Asset Utilization, Net Interest Margin, Spread, Overhead Efficiency, and Tax Ratios.

Answers

Answer:

Earning Assets ratio = Earning Assets/Total assets

Total asset = 24,883: Earning Assets = 1890 + 3680 + 1988 + 16145 = 23703

Earning Assets ratio = 23703 / 24,883

Earning Assets ratio = 0.9525781

Earning Assets ratio = 95.25%

Return on Assets = Net income / Total assets

Return on Assets = 860 / 24,883

Return on Assets = 0.034561748985251

Return on Assets = 3.456%

Total Operating Income = Operating income / Interest income

Total Operating Income = 1075 / 2945

Total Operating Income = 0.365025467

Total Operating Income = 36.50%

Net Interest Margin = (Interest income - Interest expenses) / Average earnin asset

Net Interest Margin = (2,945-1,634) / 23,703

Net Interest Margin = 1,311 / 23,703

Net Interest Margin = 0.0553094544994305

Net Interest Margin = 5.53%

Assets utilization ratio = Revenue / Total assets

Assets utilization ratio = 2,945 / 24,883

Assets utilization ratio = 0.1183538962343769

Assets utilization ratio = 11.84%

Overhead efficiency ratio = 281 / 3,130

Overhead efficiency ratio = 0.089776357827476

Overhead efficiency ratio = 8.98%

Tax ratio = Tax expenses / Income

Tax ratio = 215 / 1,075

Tax ratio = 0.2

Tax ratio = 20%

The following is a TRUE statement about inventory within a continuous review system: A. When holding costs increase, Economic Order Quantity decreases B. When service level decreases, Economic Order Quantity decreases C. When demand increases, Economic Order Quantity decreases D. When ordering or setup costs increase, Economic Order Quantity decreases E. When holding costs decrease, Economic Order Quantity decreases

Answers

Answer:

A. When holding costs increase, Economic Order Quantity decreases

Explanation:

The answer will be attain through the following illustration

Suppose,  Demand = 1000 units, Ordering cost = $10, Holding cost = $0.50

Economic Order Quantity = √2 * 1000 Units * $10 / $0.50

Economic Order Quantity = √40000

Economic Order Quantity= 200 units

Assume, there is increase of holding cost to $1.50

Economic Order Quantity = √2 * 1000 Units * $10 / $1.50

Economic Order Quantity = √13333

Economic Order Quantity = 116 unit

Therefore, when holding costs increase, Economic Order Quantity decreases.

Inventory is termed as the stock of the goods and services available for the consumption of the consumers or the customers. It is referred as the management of the goods and services as per the demand of the customers in the market.  

The true statement about inventory within a continuous review system is A. When holding costs increase, Economic Order Quantity decreases.

This can be illustrated with the specific example as below:

Let,  Demand = 1000 units, Ordering cost = $10, Holding cost = $0.50

Economic Order Quantity = [tex]\sqrt{2} \times 1000 \:Units \times\frac{\$10 }{\$0.50}[/tex]

Economic Order Quantity = √40000

Economic Order Quantity= 200 units

Assume that there has been an increase in holding cost to $1.50

Economic Order Quantity = [tex]\sqrt[]{2} \times 1000 \:Units \times\frac{ \$10}{ \$1.50}[/tex]

Economic Order Quantity = √13333

Economic Order Quantity = 116 units

Germany is capital abundant country and Japan is labor abundant country. If computers are produced mostly by capital and beer is produced mostly by labor, the H-O model predicts that Question 22 options: Japan will export computers in exchange for beer. Germany will export computers in exchange for beer. Germany is too small to be of economic interest to Japan. Computers and beer don't mix, so trade cannot increase either country's well-being.

Answers

Answer:

If computers are produced mostly by capital and beer is produced mostly by labor, the H-O model predicts that

Germany will export computers in exchange for beer.

Explanation:

The H-O model or Heckscher-Ohlin theory is an economic model about the comparative advantages of nations in international trade.  The model tries to explain the equilibrium of trade existing between two countries that have varying specialties and natural resources.  According to the H-O model, countries export more goods and services for which they have plenty resources than they do for goods and services for which they have scarce resources.  For example, if a country has capital in abundance, it will export more of capital-intensive products while it will import labor-intensive products, because it has scarce labor resources.

The following information was available from the inventory records of Sheffield Corp. for January: Units Unit Cost Total Cost Balance at January 1 9200 $9.73 $89516 Purchases: January 6 6400 10.31 65984 January 26 7900 10.71 84609 Sales January 7 (7700 ) January 31 (11300 ) Balance at January 31 4500 Assuming that Sheffield does not maintain perpetual inventory records, what should be the inventory at January 31, using the weighted-average inventory method, rounded to the nearest dollar

Answers

Answer:

$45,990

Explanation:

The Weighted Average Cost Method, calculates a new Unit Cost with every purchase that is made. This is applicable to perpetual Inventory method. In this case we are required to use the periodic Inventory method (Sheffield does not maintain perpetual inventory records). Thus our Unit Cost is calculated from Inventory available for Sale.

Step 1

Units Available For Sales Calculation :

Opening Balance                           9,200

Add Purchases (6,400 + 7,900)   14,300

Units Available for Sale               23,500

Less Units Sold (7700 + 11300)  (19,000)

Ending Inventory Units                  4,500

Step 2

Unit Cost = Total Cost ÷ Units Available for Sale

                = ($89,516  + $65,984 + $84,609) ÷ 23,500

                = $10.22

Step 3

Ending Inventory = Units in Stock × Unit Cost

                             = 4,500 × $10.22

                             = $45,990

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The composite score for each location is as follows;

The Composite score for Location A is

= 85 × 0.15 + 70 × 0.2 + 87 × 0.18  + 0.27 × 95 + 86 × 0.1 + 88 × 0.1

= 85.7

= 86

The Composite score for Location B is

= 85 × 0.15 + 91 × 0.2 + 97 × 0.18 + 90 × 0.27 + 90 × 0.1 + 0.1 ×92

= 90.91

= 91

The Composite score for Location C is

= 82 × 0.15 + 91 × 0.2 + 90 × 0.18 + 92 × 0.27 + 97 × 0.1 + 0.1 ×84

= 89.64

An investor implements a collar strategy by purchasing 100 shares of the Tesla stock at a price of $840 per share, selling 100 call options on the Tesla stock with a strike price $880 per share, and buying 100 put option on the Tesla with a strike price of $800. The premium of the call option is $35 per share and the premium of the put option is $32. At which stock price at the maturity of the option will the investor break even

Answers

Answer: $837

Explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Purchase price = $840 per share

Premium of call option = $35 per share

Premium of put option = $32 per share

From the above, the premium received will be:

= $35 - $32 = $3

Investors break even will then be:

= Purchase price - Premium received

= $840 - $3

= $837
