Answer:
3. The special concept reminded by the phrase "Exchanging Butter Cake for Dates" is:
Trade by barter.
4. The need fulfilled by this business is people's demand for Cake.
The want fulfilled by this business is the organization's supply of dates for its production of cake.
Explanation:
A trade by barter involves the exchange of one good or service by one trading party for another good or service from the coincidental trading party without the use of money or monetary mediums. Trade by barter enables people without money to fulfill their needs. The major problem with trade by barter is that there must be coincidence of wants by the two trading partners. This is not always feasible.
On May 1, Carlisle Co. sold inventory to a customer for $1,000 2/10, n/30. Carlisle Co. uses the gross method for reporting sales discounts. The customer paid the account in full on May 20. What will be the Net Sales reported on the Income Statement from these tranactions
Answer:
The Net Sales that will reported on the Income Statement from these transactions is $1,000.
Explanation:
The term "2/10, n/30" implies that the customer will enjoy a 2% discount if it pays within 10 days but must pay the total amount within 30 days.
However, customer paid on May 20 which is outside the 2% discount period. This implies the customer did not enjoy the 2% discount. That is, the customer paid the full amount of $1,000. Therefore, the net sales is $1,000 from these transactions.
Therefore, the Net Sales that will reported on the Income Statement from these transactions is $1,000.
Rosina purchased one 15-year bond at par value when it was initially issued. This bond has a coupon rate of 7 percent and matures 13 years from now. If the current market rate for this type and quality of bond is 7.5 percent, then Rosina should expect: the bond issuer to increase the amount of all future interest payments. the yield to maturity to remain constant due to the fixed coupon rate. to realize a capital loss if she sold the bond at today's market price. today's market price to exceed the face value of the bond. the current yield today to be less than 7 percent.
Answer:
to realize a capital loss if she sold the bond at today's market price.
Explanation:
Given that
NPER is 13
RATE is 7.5%
PMT is 7% of $1,000
Future value be $1,000
We need to find out the present value
So,
The current price of the bond is:
=PV(7.5%,13,7%*1000,1000)
=$959.37
Now if she wants to sell the bond now, so the value should be less than the face value due to which there should be the capital loss

c. An additional layer of $23,760 is added to the 12/31/2021 balance.
d. None of these answer choices are correct.
Answer:
a. An additional layer of $12,760 is added to the 12/31/2021 balance.
Explanation:
The computation of the inventory balance is given below:
2021 Base year cost is
= $131,040 ÷ 1.05
= $124,800
Additional layer is
= $124,800 - $101,600
= $23,200
2022 Base year cost is
= $150,040 ÷ 1.10
= $136,400
Additional layer is
= ($136,400 - $124,800 ) × 1.10
= $11,600 1.10
= $12,760
Therefore the first option is correct

Calculate the present value of the after tax net returns to land in the 7th year if thereal pre-tax net returns to land today are $250, real net returns to land are assumedto increase by 5% each year, inflation is 4%, the marginal tax rate is 20%, and thepretax risk adjusted discount rate is 10%.
a. 270.10
b. 216.08
c. 105.27
d. 163.84
Answer:
b. $216.08
Explanation:
Fn = Fo * (1+g)^n
Fn = $250*(1.05)^7
Fn = $250*1.40710
Fn = $351.775
Nominal net returns = $351.775 * (1.04)^7
Nominal net returns = $351.775 * 1.315932
Nominal net returns = $462.912
After tax return = Nominal net returns * (1 - 20%)
After tax return = $462.912 * (1 - 0.2)
After tax return = $370.33
After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 0.1*(1 - 0.2)
After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 0.1*0.8
After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 0.08
After-tax, risk adjusted discount rate = 8%
PV after-tax net return in 7th year = After tax return * (1+8%)^-7
PV after-tax net return in 7th year = $370.33 * (1+0.08)^-7
PV after-tax net return in 7th year = $370.33 * 0.583490
PV after-tax net return in 7th year = $216.08
Suppose you entered a contract to buy your friend's iPad. Without your knowledge, it was malfunctioning at the time you bought it, and it died soon after you started using it. Your friend had recently removed a large number of applications from the iPad that were not working. Although he honestly thought the problem was with the applications and not the iPad itself, he failed to tell you about the problem. You reasonably concluded, based on your inspection of all of the current applications on the iPad, that it was functioning properly. Can you rescind the contract to buy the iPad?
a. Yes, due to fraud.
b. Yes, due to innocent misrepresentation.
c. Yes, due to mutual mistake.
d. Yes, due to undue influence.
e. No, the latent malfunction was not material, because the iPad was functioning when you bought it.
Answer:
Can you rescind the contract to buy the iPad?
b. Yes, due to innocent misrepresentation.
Explanation:
You can rescind the contract without damages or you claim damages based on the loss that you have already incurred for the contract. An innocent misrepresentation occurs when the misrepresentation is not fraudulent nor negligent. Therefore, you can rescind the contract or affirm it. But if the misrepresentation is fraudulent or negligent, you can rescind the contract as well as claim damages.

What method yields the highest depreciation expense for Year 1
Answer:
Straight line :
Depreciation expense each of the four years is $57,200
total depreciation = $228,800
Double declining :
Year 1 = $124,700
Year 2 = $62350
Year 3 = $31,175
Year 4 = $15,588
Total depreciation expense = $233,813
Activity based depreciation
year 1 = $80,080
year 2 = $48,048
year 3 = $64,064
year 4 = $36,608
Total depreciation expense = $288,800
the deprecation method that yields the highest depreciation expense in year 1 is the double declining method
Explanation:
Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life
($249,400 - $20,600) / 4 = $57,200
Depreciation expense each of the four years is $57,200
total depreciation = $57,200 x 4 = $228,800
Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset
Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2/4
Year 1 = 2/4 x $249,400 = 124,700
book value = $249,400 - 124,700 = 124,700
Year 2 = 2/4 x 124,700 = 62350
Book value = 124,700 - 62350 = 62350
Year 3 = 2/4 x 62350 = 31,175
book value = 62350 - 31,175 = 31,175
Year 4 = 2/4 x 31,175 = 15,587.50
Addition of the depreciation expenses = $233,812.50
Activity method based on hours worked = (hours worked that year / total hours of the machine) x (Cost of asset - Salvage value)
($249,400 - $20,600) / 8,800 = 26
year 1 = 26 x 3,080 = $80,080
year 2 = 26 x 1,848 = $48,048
year 3 = 26 x 2,464 = $64,064
year 4 = 26 x 1,408 = $36,608
Addition of the depreciation expenses = $288,800
The Perry Company reported Accounts Receivable, Net of $66,000 at the beginning of the year and $72,900 at the end of the year. If the company's net sales revenue during the fourth year was $882,000, what are the days to collect during year? (Round all calculations to 1 decimal place.)
a. 8.3
b. 30.2
c. 12.1
d. 28.7
Answer:
d. 28.7
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the days to collect during year
Using this formula
Average collection period=Average accounts receivables/Net sales*365
Where,
Average accounts receivables=$66,000+$72,900/2
Average accounts receivables=$69,450
Let plug in the formula
Collection period =$69,450/$882,000*365
Collection period=28.7 days
Therefore the days to collect during year is 28.7days
When the price elasticity of demand for a good is very elastic, quantity demanded is _____ to a change in price and the demand curve is relatively _____. Group of answer choices
Answer:
1. Responsive
2. Elastic
Explanation:
When the price elasticity of demand for a good is very elastic, quantity demanded is RESPONSIVE to a change in price and the demand curve is relatively ELASTIC.
This is because the price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded to a change in price.
Consequently, as the quantity demanded changes, the demand curve then becomes relatively elastic, by shifting either to the right or left.
MC Qu. 149 Trago Company manufactures... Trago Company manufactures a single product and has a JIT policy that ending inventory must equal 30% of the next month's sales. It estimates that May's ending inventory will consist of 85,500 units. June and July sales are estimated to be 285,000 and 295,000 units, respectively. Trago assigns variable overhead at a rate of $2.30 per unit of production. Fixed overhead equals $405,000 per month. Compute the number of units to be produced and use this amount to compute the total budgeted overhead that would appear on the factory overhead budget for the month of June.
Answer:
$1067400
Explanation:
The computation of the number of units and factory overhead is given below:
units to be produced in june is
= ending inventory + sales - beginning inventory
= (30% of 295000) + 285000 - 85500
= 288000 Units
Now
Overheads budgeted for june
= variable overheads + fixed overheads
= (288000 × 2.3) + 405000
= 662400+405000
= $1067400

Colorado Cleaning has a 5-year maximum acceptable payback period. The firm is considering the purchase of a new washing machine and must choose between two alternative ones. The first machine requires an initial investment of $25,000 and generates annual after-tax cash inflows of $6,500 for each of the next 8 years. The second machine requires an initial investment of $75,000 and provides an annual cash inflow after taxes of $9,500 for 15 years.
Required:
a. Determine the payback period for each machine.
b. Comment on the acceptability of the machines, assuming that they are independent projects.
c. Which machine should the firm accept? Why?
d. Do the machines in this problem illustrate any of the weaknesses of using payback? Discuss.
Answer:
a) Payback period = period up to which cumulative cash flow is negative +
(negative cumulative cash flow /cash flow succeeding
the above period)
Project A - Up to year 4 ,cash flow recovered = 3000 * 4 = 12,000
Payback period =14,000/3,000 = 4.67 years
Project B= Cash flow recovered up to year 5 = 4000 * 5 = 20000
Payback period = 21,000/4,000 =5.25 years
b) On the basis of the Payback period, Project A should be selected, as it has a lower payback period and is also within the maximum acceptable payback period. back period.(4.67 < 5)
Project B should not be selected as its payback recovery is not within the maximum acceptable payback period (5.25 >5 )
c) Machine A should be selected as it has a lower payback period. than machine B.
d)The payback period ignores the life present value of cash flow and also the life of the machine each project has.
so the decision on the basis of the payback period may not be accurate.
