Answer:
The average annual growth rate of dividends for this firm is 90.05%
Explanation:
In order to calculate the average annual growth rate of dividends for this firm we would to have to use the following formula:
A=P(1+r/100)^n
where
A=future value
P=present value
r=rate of interest
n=time period.
7=1*(1+r/100)^3
(7/1)^(1/3)=(1+r/100)
(1+r/100)=1.9005
r=(1.9005-1)*100
=90.05%(Approx).
The average annual growth rate of dividends for this firm is 90.05%
The following information was drawn from the accounting records of Chapin Company. On January 1, Year 1, Chapin paid $56,000 cash to purchase a truck. The truck had a five-year useful life and a $6,000 salvage value. As of December 31, Year 1, Chapin Company had a $68,000 balance in its Accounts Receivable account and a zero balance in its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts account. Sales on account for Year 1 amounted to $320,000. Chapin estimates that 5 percent of credit sales will be uncollectible. Required a. Record the year-end adjusting entry for depreciation expense on the truck in T-accounts. b. Determine the book value of the truck that will appear on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet. c. Record the year-end adjusting entry of uncollectible accounts expense. d. Determine the net realizable value of receivables that will appear on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet.
Answer: Please refer to Explanation
Explanation:
a)
The truck was bought for $56,000 and has a 5 year useful value after which it will have a salvage value of $6,000.
Depreciation can therefore be calculated as,
= ( Cost - Salvage) / Useful life
= (56,000 - 6,000) / 5
= $10,000
It will be depreciated at $10,000 per year.
Recording it will be,
DR Depreciation $10,000
CR Accumulated Depreciation (Truck) $10,000
(To record Depreciation expense to the year)
b) The Book Value is calculated as the Original Cost less the Accumulated Depreciation.
The Accumulated Depreciation so far being the first year is only $10,000.
The Book Value therefore is,
= 56,000 - 10,000
= $46,000
c) It is estimated that 5% of Credit Sales will be Uncollectible. This will go into the Uncollectible Account Balance. This is done to cater for the possibility that some people will not pay the money they owe so if they don't, it is simply taken from this account.
Sales are $320,000 and 5% are estimated Uncollectible.
This means that,
= 320,000 * 5%
= $16,000 will be recorded in the Uncollectible Account Balance
Recording it looks like,
DR Uncollectible Account Expense $16,000
CR Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $16,000
(To record Uncollectible Account Expense)
d) The Net Realizable Value of the Receivables will be Receivables less the Uncollectible Account Expense which will be removed to reflect the belief that some debtors will default.
Receivables are $68,000 and the Uncollectible Amount is $ 16,000.
Net Realizable Value = 68,000 - 16,000
Net Realizable Value = $52,000
Examine the following book-value balance sheet for University Products Inc. The preferred stock currently sells for $15 per share and pays a dividend of $3 a share. The common stock sells for $16 per share and has a beta of 0.9. There are 3 million common shares outstanding. The market risk premium is 10%, the risk-free rate is 6%, and the firm’s tax rate is 21%.
Answer:
a. What is the market debt-to-value ratio of the firm?
18.45%b. What is University’s WACC?
13.87%Explanation:
total equity = 3,000,000 stocks x $16 = $48,000,000
cost of preferred stock debt = $3 / $15 = 20%
market risk premium = 10%
risk free rate = 6%
beta = 0.9
cost of equity = 6% x (0.9 x 10%) = 15%
some information was missing:
total preferred stocks = $2,000,000 $20 (par value) = 100,000 preferred stockstotal outstanding bonds $10,000,000 (8% coupon but with a 9% yield to maturity) 10 years to maturitymarket value of bonds:
PV of maturity value = $10,000,000 / (1.09)¹⁰ = 4,224,108
PV of coupons = $8,000,000 x {1 - [1 / (1 + 0.09)¹⁰]} / 0.09 = $5,134,126
total = $9,358,234
total capitalization = total common stocks + total preferred stocks + total outstanding bonds = $48,000,000 + (100,000 x $15) + $9,358,234 = $58,858,234
debt to value ratio = total debt / (debt + equity)
total debt = $1,500,000 + $9,358,234 = $10,858,234
total capitalization = $58,858,234
debt to value ratio = $10,858,234 / $58,858,234 = 18.45%
University’s WACC = (E/V x cost of equity) + (preferred stocks/V x cost of preferred stocks) + [bonds/V x YTM x (1 - 21%)] = ($48,000,000/$58,858,234 x 15%) + ($1,500,000/$58,858,234 x 20%) + [$9,358,234/$58,858,234 x 9% x (1 - 0.21)] = 12.23% + 0.51% + 1.13% = 13.87%
If the aggregate supply curve is flat:_________
a. contractionary fiscal or monetary policy will cause significantly less inflation.
b. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add significantly to real GDP will little effect on inflation.
c. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add little to real GDP but will increase inflation significantly.
d. contractionary fiscal or monetary policy will reduce inflation with little effect on real GDP.
Answer:
b. expansionary fiscal or monetary policy will add significantly to real GDP will little effect on inflation.
Explanation:
The Keynesian aggregate supply curve is mostly horizontal (flat) because a decline in aggregate demand will always result in a decline in aggregate production (supply). In other words, during a recession, companies are willing to supply (produce and sell) all the products and services that their consumers demand at a given price. Even if the price does not change, if aggregate demand decreases, aggregate supply will also decrease.
That is why Keynesian economists argue that governments must intervene during economic recessions.
A new factory manager was hired for a company that was experiencing slow production rates and lower production volumes than demanded by management. Uponinvestigation, the manager found that the workers were poorly motivated and not closely supervised. Midway through the quarter, an incentive program was initiated, and cash bonuses were given when workers hit their production targets. Within a short time, production output increased, but the bonuses had to be charged to the direct labor budget, and the manager was worried about the impact of these costs on operating income. This could produce a(n) ________.
A. unfavorable direct labor efficiency variance
B. unfavorable direct materials cost variance
C. unfavorable direct labor cost variance
D. unfavorable direct materials efficiency variance
Answer:
C. unfavorable direct labor cost variance
Explanation:
The payment of cash bonuses would result in an unfavorable direct labor cost variance
. The Direct labor cost variance is unfavorable if the actual cost per hour is higher than the standard cost which in this question is as a result of bonuses charged to the direct labor budget. In other word, the factory paid more per hour of labor than what it has estimated
Savannah Factory applies manufacturing overhead based on direct labor cost. Information concerning manufacturing overhead and labor for August follows: Estimated Actual Overhead cost $174,000 $171,100 Direct labor hours 5,800 5,900 Direct labor cost $87,000 $89,975 How much overhead should be applied in total during August
Answer:
$179,950
Explanation:
For determining the overhead applied first we have to find the predetermined overhead rate based on the estimated cost which is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate is
= Estimated overhead cost ÷ estimated direct labor cost
= $174,000 ÷ $87,000
= $2
Now the applied overhead is
= Predetermined overhead rate × actual direct labor cost
= $2 × $89,975
= $179,950
We simply applied the above formula so that the overhead applied could come
The Fields Company has two manufacturing departments, forming and painting. The company uses the weighted-average method of process costing. At the beginning of the month, the forming department has 26,000 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs. The beginning inventory cost of $62,100 consisted of $46,000 of direct material costs and $16,100 of conversion cost.
During the month, the forming department started 320,000 units. At the end of the month, the forming department had 32,000 units in ending inventory, 90% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion. Units completed in the forming department are transferred to the painting department.
Cost information for the forming department is as follows:
Beginning work in process inventory $ 62,100
Direct materials added during the month 1,393,760
Conversion added during the month 800,900
1. Calculate the equivalent units of production for the forming department. Direct Materials Conversion
2. Calculate the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) EUP EUP Direct Materials Conversion
Answer:
1. Direct Materials = 342,800, Conversion = 326,800
2. Direct Materials = $4.20, Conversion = $2.50, Total = $6.70
Explanation:
Calculation of equivalent units of production for the forming department.
First Calculate the Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department.
Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 26,000 + 320,000 - 32,000 = 314,000
Direct Materials
Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 314,000
Units in Closing Work In Process (32,000 × 90%) = 28,800
Total Equivalent Units = 342,800
Conversion
Units Completed and Transferred to the Painting department = 314,000
Units in Closing Work In Process (32,000 × 40%) = 12,800
Total Equivalent Units = 326,800
Calculation of the costs per equivalent unit of production for the forming department.
First calculate the costs incurred during the period for both Direct Materials and Conversion.
Direct Materials
Costs in Opening Work In Process = $46,000
Costs Added during the Period = $1,393,760
Total Costs = $1,439,760
Conversion
Costs in Opening Work In Process = $16,100
Costs Added during the Period = $800,900
Total Costs = $817,000
Then calculate the cost per equivalent unit of production for both Direct Materials and Conversion.
Cost per equivalent unit = Total Costs / Total Equivalent Units
Direct Materials ($1,439,760 / 342,800) = $4.20
Conversion ($817,000 / 326,800) = $2.50
Total = $6.70

Your firm needs a machine which costs $240,000, and requires $39,000 in maintenance for each year of its 7 year life. After 3 years, this machine will be replaced. The machine falls into the MACRS 7-year class life category. Assume a tax rate of 40% and a discount rate of 12%. If this machine can be sold for $24,000 at the end of year 7, what is the after tax salvage value
Answer:
The after tax salvage value would be of $18,681.6
Explanation:
In order to calculate the after tax salvage value we would have use and calculate the following formula:
After tax salvage value = selling price*(1-tax rate)+book value*tax rate
Book value = 8 year depreciation amount of 7 year MACR*purchase price
After tax salvage value = $24,000*(1-0.4)+$240,000*4.46/100*0.4
After tax salvage value = $18,681.6
The after tax salvage value would be of $18,681.6
Dawn is a manager for a pet grooming shop. She has decided to engage in planning by creating goals for her employees. Dawn has created a plan to increase revenues at the store by setting goals for each employee to up-sell customers into dog pedicures and hair dyeing services, which bring in higher revenues than dog bathing and trimming. Which of the following are likely results of the plan that Dawn has created?
A. Dawn's employees work harder during their shifts
B. Dawn notices her employees staying past their shifts all month in order to meet their goals
C. The pet groomers become more efficient at bathing and trimming dogs so they have more time for dog pedicures and hair dyeing
D. After not hitting the revenue goals the first month, Dawn's employees stop trying to up-sell customers and just focus on bathing and trimming
Answer: A. Dawn's employees work harder during their shifts
B. Dawn notices her employees staying past their shifts all month in order to meet their goals
C. The pet groomers become more efficient at bathing and trimming dogs so they have more time for dog pedicures and hair dyeing
Explanation:
By setting goals for each employee, Dawn has given the employees a reason to work faster and hard so that they may be able to reach their targets.
They will most likely work harder during their shifts so that they make be able to upsell the dog pedicures and hair dying.
If they have not met their quotas she will also notice that they will be staying past the time they are supposed to just so they can meet the target for the day.
She will notice that they start doing dog trimming and bathing faster and more efficiently so that they may have time to convince and then to actually engage in pedicure and hair dying for the dogs.

Kalen is a seventeen-year-old minor who has just graduated from high school. He is attending a university two hundred miles from home and has contracted to rent an apartment near the university for one year at $500 per month. He is working at a convenience store to earn enough income to be self-supporting. After living in the apartment and paying monthly rent for four months, he becomes involved in a dispute with his landlord. Kalen, still a minor, moves out and returns the key to the landlord. The landlord wants to hold Kalen liable for the balance of the payments due under the lease. Discuss fully Kalen’s liability in this situation.
Answer and Explanation:
According to the scenario, the explanation of the given situation are as follow:-
1. Ability of Contract : According to the law except of some contract a minor can enter into any contract. Mr. kalen is a seventeen year old minor and he can entered the rent contract because it is not banned by the government for the minor.
2. This is a voidable contract because Mr. Kalen is a minor and he not legally capable to entering in agreement. In voidable contract one party has a right to discontinue the contract it is depends on him that he want to void it or not. If he wants to void it he cannot be bound to go further with this contract. If a minor wants he can rightfully dis-affirm any contract in which he enters.
According to the analysis, under this circumstance, Mr. kalen is not bound to the contract because he is still minor and he shows his disaffirmance of contract by returning the key to landlord. So he is not liable for the balance of the payments due under the lease.

Serial Problem Business Solutions LO P4 Business Solutions sells upscale modular desk units and office chairs in the ratio of 3:2 (desk unit:chair). The selling prices are $1,310 per desk unit and $560 per chair. The variable costs are $810 per desk unit and $310 per chair. Fixed costs are $180,000. Required: 1. Compute the selling price per composite unit. 2. Compute the variable costs per composite unit. 3. Compute the break-even point in composite units. 4. Compute the number of units of each product that would be sold at the break-even point.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The selling prices are $1,310 per desk unit and $560 per chair. The variable costs are $810 per desk unit and $310 per chair. Fixed costs are $180,000.
The company sells 3 deks per 2 chairs.
Sales proportion:
Desks= 3/5= 0.6
Chairs= 2/5= 0.4
1) Selling price per composite unit= sales proportion*selling price
Selling price per composite unit= 0.6*1,310 + 0.4*560
Selling price per composite unit= $1,010
2) Variable cost per composite unit= sales proportion*unitary variable cost
Variable cost per composite unit= 0.6*810 + 0.4*310
Variable cost per composite unit= 610
3) Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin
Break-even point (units)= 180,000/ (1,010 - 610)
Break-even point (units)= 450 units
4) Number of units for each product:
Desks= 0.6*450= 270
Chairs= 0.4*450= 180

A legal written promise to pay borrowed money back at a fixed rate of interest over a fixed period of time is a
The answer is Promissory Note
Explanation:
The most common document used to register a loan and guarantee this is paid back is a Promissory Note. In this, the parties involved register the amount of money that was borrowed and the borrower promises through the document to pay this amount of money before a fixed specific date. Also, promissory notes register the rate of interest that will be paid by the borrower. Besides this, a promissory note is a legal document that registers the loan and can be used as a legal instrument in case the money is not paid back.
Cowboy, Inc., an American corporation that produces cowboy hats contract with a manufacturing plant in France, Beret, Inc. The contract provides that Beret, Inc. will produce the cowboy hats in France to be distributed back in the United States by Cowboy, Inc. The contract does not provide which country’s law will apply if a dispute arises between Cowboy and Beret. Eventually, Cowboy discovers that Beret is not producing the hats under the specifications agreed upon in the contract. Which will American or French law be used in settling the dispute? Why?
Explanation:
When companies from different countries get into a contract, it is quite desirable that they stipulate which country's laws that they will abide by should the need arise.
However, if this is not done, there is still a method of enforcing. When not specifically listed, contract between companies from different countries falls under a branch of Private International law which is International Contract Law which is synonymous with International Sales law.
This law falls under the jurisdiction of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) which came into effect in January 1988.
Both France and the United States of America have ratified the law and so Cowboy Hats is free to take legal action within this framework if they so please.

You are an entrepreneur starting a biotechnology firm. If your research is successful, the technology can be sold for $ 30$30 million. If your research is unsuccessful, it will be worth nothing. To fund your research, you need to raise $2.02.0 million. Investors are willing to provide you with $2.02.0 million in initial capital in exchange for 50 %50% of the unlevered equity in the firm. a. What is the total market value of the firm without leverage? b. Suppose you borrow $1.01.0 million. According to MM, what fraction of the firm's equity will you need to sell to raise the additional $1.01.0 million you need? c. What is the value of your share of the firm's equity in cases (a) and (b)? a. What is the total market value of the firm without leverage?
Answer:
a. What is the total market value of the firm without leverage?
= $2 million / 50% = $4 millionb. Suppose you borrow $1.0 million. According to MM, what fraction of the firm's equity will you need to sell to raise the additional $1.0 million you need?
= 33.33%c. What is the value of your share of the firm's equity in cases (a) and (b)?
a) = $4 x 50% = $2 millionb) = $2 millionExplanation:
if successful price = $30 million
if unsuccessful price = $0
investment required = $2 million
in exchange of 50% of the firm
if you borrow $1 million, you will have to give up 33.33% of the company in exchange for the other $1 million needed
= $1 / ($4 - $1) = $1 / $3 = 33%
according to Modigliani and Miller (MM), the value of a firm is determined by its profit.
Rich, Inc. acquired 30% of Doane Corporation's voting stock on January 1, 2018 for $1,000,000. During 2018, Doane earned $400,000 and paid dividends of $250,000. Rich's 30% interest in Doane gives Rich the ability to exercise significant influence over Doane's operating and financial policies. On January 1, 2019, Rich sold half of its stock in Doane for $660,000 cash.
a. What accounting should be made by Rich, Inc. for dividends received from Doane subsequent to the date of investment?
b. What amount should Rich include in its 2018 income statement as a result of the investment?
c. What should be the carrying amount of this investment reported on Rich's December 31, 2018 balance sheet?
d. What should be the gain on sale of this investment in Rich's 2019 income statement?
Answer: a) Reduce by $75,000
b) $120,000
c) $1,045,000
d) $137,500
Explanation:
a) Dividends reduce the investment amount by an investor in the business.
Rich owns 30% in stock so they are entitled to 30% in Dividends.
= 30% * 250,000
= $75,000
Rich's investment account should reduce by $75,000.
b) Doane Corporation earned $400,000 in earnings for the year 2018. Rich should include their share of this earnings in their income statement. Income also increases the investment account. As he owns 30%, they should include 30% of this in their statement.
= 30% * 400,000
= $120,000
c) The Carrying amount of an investment refers to what the investment is worth in the current period which is the end of 2018. Remember that dividends reduce the amount of the investment and income increases the amount.
The Carrying amount therefore is,
= Cost of Investment + Income attributed to Investment - Dividends
= 1,000,000 + 120,000 - 75,000
= $1,045,000
d) As the earnings and the cash dividends for the year 2019 re not available, assume that it is the same as 2018.
This will mean that the carrying value on July 1 will still be $1,045,000.
Rich sold half of their stake so half of the carrying value is
= 1,045,000/2
=$522,500
They sold it for $660,000 but it was worth $522,500. The Gain is therefore,
= 660,000 - 522,500
= $137,500
