You are the executive vice president for Cooper Tire, the sixth largest U.S. tire maker. You have the responsibility to locate land for a new distribution center in Mississippi, and you own over 1,000 acres of land near one site in Tupelo. This could create for you:________.
A) a code of ethics.
B) the usual decision-making problems of cost versus benefit to Cooper Tire.
C) a wonderful, ethical opportunity to make a lot of money.
D) an ethical opportunity to move the distribution center to your hometown.
E) a conflict of interest.
Answer:
This could create for you:________.
E) a conflict of interest.
Explanation:
The conflict of interest will occur when, as the executive vice president for Cooper Tire, you decide to buy the land for your company from your own acres of land. It means that your personal interests (or family, friendships, financial, or other social factors) are being served, perhaps at the detriment of your employer's. In this situation, it is likely that you could compromise your judgment, decisions, or actions in the workplace by going ahead to acquire this land for your company because you want to serve your personal and community interests. However, you can avoid the conflict by clearly stating your positions to your company and allow other management staff to make the needed decision with regards to your land.

a. Owners and managers do not have an economic incentive to supply the amount and type of financial information because it has no effect on the company's ability to raise capital at the lowest cost.
b. Companies have an economic incentive to supply the formation investors want in order to raise capital at the lowest possible cost.
c. Because financial disclosures are regulated, owners and managers have little economic incentive to supply the amount and type of financial information that will enable them to raise capital most cheaply.
d. Because companies have an economic incentive to supply information investors want, regulatory groups have intendence over the amount and type of financial information that Comores descone.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
If investors do not have adequate information about the company they are investing, they would demand an higher rate of return. This would increase the cost of raising capital. So, financial managers who want to raise capital at a cheap rate would have the incentive to disclose information
You purchase a $1,000 asset for $800. It pays $60 a year for seven years at which time you receive the $1,000 principal. Prove that the annual return on this investment is not 9 percent.
Answer:
Please check explanations for answer
Explanation:
Here, we want to prove that the ROI is not 9 percent per annum
The amount spent buying the item is $800
Now, there is $60 payment per year for 7 years
The total amount received as the total of payment per year after the 7 years will be;
7 * 60 = $420
Now, instead of the $800 paid initially, $1000 was returned as the principal
What this mean is that there is an extra $200 gain including the $420 that was paid earlier
So the total amount of gain on the investment is $200 + $420 = $620
Now, we proceed to calculate the percentage this was, relative to the amount invested
That would be;
620/800 * 100%
= 77.5%
So there was a 77.5% ROI
so the yearly return on this will be;
77.5%/7 = 11.07 which is approximately 11%
So the ROI is 11% and not 9%
How is poverty anywhere a threat to prosperity everywhere?
Answer: Here poverty can be explained as a barrier to growth.
Explanation:
Although we indeed live today in a globalized world, where there are greater opportunities for more people, poverty continues to be a problem that can be a barrier to the growth of wealth.
Poverty interferes with the growth of the human being since it limits it and does not allow it to develop its potential, which leads it to remain at the same level where it was and contributes to the growth of poverty.
When poverty is higher, prosperity is lower. Inequalities in many aspects are becoming more marked and although it is true there seem to be greater opportunities, many times those people who come from poverty face difficulties to get out of there, which makes it a kind of circle.

1. In the case when Van write the check so it would be classified as the medium of exchange
2. When van would easily measures the price of the super i.e. higher than the duper price so it would be classfied as the unit of the account
3. And, when van saved the amount of $4,000 in his checking account so it would be classified as the store of the value
Assume that Nevermore, Inc., a U.S.-based subsidiary wants to raise $US 1 million by issuing a bond denominated in Pakistani rupees (PKR). The current exchange rate of the rupee is $.02
How many PKR does the MNC need to obtain the $US 1 million needed?
Answer: 50,000,000 Pakistani rupees (PKR)
Explanation:
The company wants to raise enough money in Pakistani rupees to match a million American dollars.
The rate is a Rupee to $0.02.
A million dollars will be:
= 1,000,000/0.02
= 50,000,000 Pakistani rupees (PKR)
ReNew Corporation raises funds to build renewable energy systems by issuing 3-year bonds with a coupon rate of 5% and a face value of $1,800. Assume that the market interest rate for a 3-year bond issued by a firm like ReNew is currently the same as the coupon rate. The price of each of these bonds is , which means that the bonds sell at .
Answer:
$1,800
Explanation:
The price of the bond today is the present value of future cash flows, which are the coupon payments and the face value receivable by bondholders at redemption in 3 years.
When a bond has the same coupon rate as the yield, the bond would sell at par which is the $1,800 par value.
This is further affirmed using the formula below:
bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+annual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r
face value=$1,800
r=yield=5%
n=number of annual coupons in 3 years=3
annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1800*5%=$90
bond price=$1800/(1+5%)^3+$90*(1-(1+5%)^-3/5%
bond price=$1800/1.05^3+$90*(1-(1.05)^-3/0.05
bond price=$1800/1.157625+$90*(1-0.863838)/0.05
bond price=$1800/1.157625+$90*0.136162/0.05
bond price=$ 1,554.91 +$ 245.09
bond price=$ 1,800.00

A new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Additional time costs $180 per hour. What are the average and marginal costs per hour for the following quantities?
a) 125.
b) 225.
c) 325.
Answer:
a) 0, 0
b) 180 per hour, 20per hour
c) 180 per hour , 69.2 per hour
Explanation:
We are to calculate the average and marginal costs per hour of the given value above
a) Given Number of hours is 125, but we are told that the new machine comes with 200 free service hours over the first year. Then MARGINAL COST= 0 because the service can be equal to 200hours and the given 125 hours is less than that.
then AVERAGE COST = ZERO
(b) we are Given 225 number of hours
Additional time costs is given as $180 per hour.
Then we have $180 per hour as MARGINAL COST.
Total cost can be calculated as
= [$180 × (225 - 200)]
=[ $180 ×25] = $4,500
Average cost can be calculated as
ratio of Total cost to Number of hours i.e $4,500/225
= 20per hour
C)we are Given 325 number of hours
Additional time costs is given as $180 per hour.
Then we have $180 per hour as MARGINAL COST.
Total cost can be calculated as
= [$180 × (235 - 200)]
=[ $180 ×125] = $22,500
Average cost can be calculated as
ratio of Total cost to Number of hours i.e $22,500/325
= 69.2per hour

Smashed Pumpkins Co. paid $160 in dividends and $589 in interest over the past year. The company increased retained earnings by $492 and had accounts payable of $630. Sales for the year were $16,370 and depreciation was $732. The tax rate was 40 percent. What was the company's EBIT
Answer: $1675.67
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the company's EBIT would be calculated as:
Earnings After Tax will be:
= Retained Earnings + Dividends
= 492 + 160
= 652
Earnings Before Tax will be:
= EAT / (1 - tax rate)
= 652 / (1 - 40%)
= 652 / (1 - 0.40)
= 652/0.60
= 1086.67
EBIT would then be calculated as:
= EBT + Interest
= 1086.67 + 589
= 1675.67
Vicky Torres and Juanita Alva were the first in line at Best Buy during a Black Friday sale so that they could secure a large-screen TV, which was normally $499 and was advertised on sale at $199. Because they arrived three weeks early, they ended up waiting in line for a total of 500 hours! The authors of your textbook found their choice puzzling because of the high opportunity cost in this scenario. The authors say: "Saving $300 by spending 500 hours makes Vicky and Juanita's time worth 60 cents an hour. They could have spent 30 hours working an extra job at $10 an hour and each earned enough money to purchase the TV at full price-and still had 470 hours to do other things. In short, they don't seem to have been aware of the opportunity cost of waiting in line." But this is not the only conclusion one can draw from Vicky and Juanita's behavior. Choose the conclusion below that would be consistent with the idea that Vicky and Juanita were aware of the opportunity costs yet still found the three-week-wait to be worthwhile.
a. "However, they might have enjoyed the experience of camping out in line, meeting other customers, and gaining a degree of fame for their commitment to getting a good deal."
b. "Vicky and Juanita really enjoy their high paying jobs and don't like camping at all."
c. "If they are able to camp out for three weeks, they probably do not have full-time jobs, so earning 60 cents an hour is a good decision for the shoppers."
Answer:
a. "However, they might have enjoyed the experience of camping out in line, meeting other customers, and gaining a degree of fame for their commitment to getting a good deal."
Explanation:
Opportunity costs refer to the extra costs or benefits lost associated with choosing one activity or investment over another alternative. In other words, every activity that you carry out includes the opportunity cost of not doing something else. Vicky and Juanita obtained more than just the $300 discount, they also met new people and a little bit of fame.

An internal study by the Technology Services department at Lahey Electronics revealed company employees receive an average of two emails per hour. Assume the arrival of these emails is approximated by the Poisson distribution.
a. What is the probability Linda Lahey, company president, received exactly 1 email between 4 P.M. and 5 P.M. yesterday?
b. What is the probability she received 5 or more emails during the same period?
c. What is the probability she did not receive any emails during the period?
Answer:
0.2706 ; 0.05265 ; 0.1353
Explanation:
Given that :
λ = 2
According to the poisson distribution formula :
P(x = x) = (λ^x * e^-λ) / x!
P(x = 1) = (2^1 *e^-2) / 1!
P(x = 1) = (2 * 0.1353352) = 0.2706
P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - [p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) + p(x = 3) + p(x = 4)]
We obtain and add the individual probabilities. To save computation time, we can use a poisson distribution calculator :
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - (0.13534+0.27067+0.27067+0.18045+0.09022)
1 - P(x < 5) = 1 - 0.94735 = 0.05265
P(x ≥ 5) = 1 - P(x < 5) = 0.05265
Probability that no emails was received :
x = 0
P(x = 0) = (2^0 *e^-2) / 0!
P(x = 0) = (1 * 0.1353352) / 1 = 0.1353
In Year 1, in a project to develop Product X, Lincoln Company incurred research and development costs totaling $10 million. Lincoln is able to clearly distinguish the research phase from the development phase of the project. Research-phase costs are $6 million, and development-phase costs are $4 million. All of the IAS 38 criteria have been met for recognition of the development costs as an asset. Product X was brought to market in Year 2 and is expected to be marketable for 5 years. Total sales of Product X are estimated at more than $100 million.
Required:
a. Determine the impact research and development costs have on Lincoln Company's Year 1 and Year 2 income under (1) IFRS and (2) U.S. GAAP.
b. Summarize the difference in income, total assets, and total stockholders' equity related to Product X over its five-year life under the two different sets of accounting rules.
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section below.
Explanation:
Data Given:
Research and Development Cost = $10 million
Research Phase Cost = $6 million
Development Cost = $4 million
Total Sales of Product X are estimated at more than = $100 million
Solution:
a.
1. IFRS:
Research cost of $6 million have been expensed in year 1 in case of IFRS.
Whereas, for year 2 developmental cost is reported as assets and amortization is recorded on the asset which is the 5th part of the developmental cost of $4 million.
$4,000,000/5 = $800,000
2. U.S. GAAP:
Under U.S. GAAP in year 1, total of $10 million have been expensed including both research and development cost.
Under U.S. GAAP in year 2, however, there is no asset reported and all the costs are expensed in year 1 hence, no impact on the income statement.
b.
Income: In year 1 under IFRS, income will be higher by $4 million ($10-$6)million before the implication of tax.
But for year 2 to year 5:
In case of IFRS, income will be lowered due to the amortization on the deferred development cost. It will decrease by $800,000.
The total assets and stock holder's equity under IFRS will be higher by the following amounts each of the years.
Year 1 $4,000,000
Year 2 $3,200,000
Year 3 $2,400,000
Year 4 $1,600,000
Year 5 $800,000
The above amount is decreased by $800,000 each year because of the amortization of asset.
