Explanation:
Subject-verb agreement is described as the grammatical rule according to which the subject, as well as, the verb must agree with one another in number. As per the rules, if the subject(noun or noun phrase) is singular, it will take a singular verb while if the subject is plural(noun or noun phrase), it will carry a plural verb.
According to this rule, the first and third sentence fails to follow this agreement. The first sentence inadequately carries a plural verb 'were' with the singular noun ('The statement') and similarly, the third sentence wrongly employs plural verb 'have' with the singular noun 'the use.' The other sentences are grammatically appropriate as the verbs and noun phrases agree in number.

Explanation:
You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks (If one of the stocks has a beta of 1 and the total portfolio is equally as risky as the market, what must the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio
Answer:
2
Explanation:
Beta measures systemic risk
The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors
The market has a beta of one. If a portfolio has the same level of systematic risk that is the same as that of the market, its beta would be equal to 1.
If the portfolio is less risky than the market, its beta would be less than one
If the portfolio is more risky than the market, its beta would be greater than one
The beta of a risk free asset is zero
The portfolio's beta can be determined by adding together the weighted beta of each stock in the portfolio
1 = (1/3 x 1) + (1/3 x 0) + (1/3 x s)
1 = 1/3 + (1/3 x s)
1 - 1/3 = 1/3s
2/3 = 1/3s
s = 2/3 x 3 = 2

In a decreasing-cost industry: Group of answer choices greater demand leads to higher long-run equilibrium prices. there will be no firm entry because the increased supply will reduce the long-run equilibrium price. lower demand leads to higher long-run equilibrium prices. the law of demand does not apply.
Answer:
lower demand leads to higher long-run equilibrium prices
Explanation:
In a decreasing cost industry, as new firms enter the industry due to increase in demand for goods produced by the industry, long run average cost curve declines and this causes the cost of production declines because
Conversely, a decrease in demand for goods produced by the industry, would make firms leave the industry. As a result, the long run average cost curve increases and this leads to a rise in the cost of production
In a declining cost industry, the supply curve is downward sloping. thus, the law of supply does not hold
according to the law of supply, the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied and the lower the price, the lower the quantity supplied.
Darius Miller is seeking to accumulate $50,000 in six years to invest in a real estate venture. He can earn 6.35 percent annual interest with monthly compounding in private investment. How much will he have to invest today to reach his goal? (Round to the nearest dollar.)
Answer:
$34193
Explanation:
Given :
Final amount, A = $50000
Interest, rate, r = 6.35% compounded monthly
Period, t = 6 years
n = number of compounding times per period, monthly = 12 times per period
Amount to be invested, P = principal
Using the relation :
A = P(1 + r/n)^n*t
50,000 = P(1 + 0.0635/12)^(12*6)
50000 = P(1 + 0.0052916)^72
50000 = P(1.0052916)^72
50000 = 1.4622779P
P = 50000 / 1.4622779
P = $34193.226
Amount to be invested today in other to have compounded $50000 in 6 years is $34193.226
To the nearest $ = $34193

Andrews Corporation has income from operations of $240,000. In addition, it received interest income of $24,000 and received dividend income of $29,500 from another corporation. Finally, it paid $11,800 of interest income to its bondholders and paid $45,000 of dividends to its common stockholders. The firm's federal tax rate is 21%. What is the firm's federal income tax
Answer: $54,820.50
Explanation:
Federal income tax = Taxable income * tax rate
Taxable income = Income from operations + Interest income received + Dividend income received - Interest income paid
= 240,000 + 24,000 + (30% * 29,500) - 11,800
= $261,050
Federal income tax = 261,050 * 21%
= $54,820.50

Firms engaged in international trade deal with people they may have never seen, who live in different countries, who speak different languages, and who abide by different legal systems. These factors result in
Answer:
a lack of trust between the parties.
Explanation:
It is correct to say that these factors result in a lack of trust between the parties, due to social, political and cultural differences between different countries.
To reduce the lack of trust between the parties, it is necessary that companies operating in international trade comply with the legal, ethical and moral rules of the location where they are located, maintaining a multicultural relationship with their stakeholders, observing their preferences and desires and aligning its products and services to what local consumers are looking for in a company. Creating value for the consumer increases the company's confidence and positioning in an international market.

Explanation:
Given:
Kelly's Kandles Antiques Galore

Cost of goods sold
Gross margin 25600

General and Admin. expenses 16,100 1000
Net income before tax 51600
Income tax expense 1,200
Net income 32300
For Kelly's Kandles, we have:
Gross margin = Selling expenses + General and Admin. expenses + Net income before tax = 13,500 + 16,100 + 51,600 = 81,200
Cost of goods sold = Sales - Gross margin = 133200 - 81,200 = 52,000
Income tax expense = Net income before tax - Net income = 51600 - 32300 = 19,300
For Antiques Galore, we have:
Cost of goods sold = Sales - Gross margin = 40000 - 25600 = 14,400
Net income before tax = Gross margin - Selling expenses - General and Admin. Expenses = 25,600 - 4,000 - 1,000 = 20,600
Income tax expense = Net income before tax - Net income = 20,600 - 1,200 = 19,400
Therefore, we have:

Forrester Company is considering buying new equipment that would increase monthly fixed costs from $396,000 to $684,000 and would decrease the current variable costs of $80 by $20 per unit. The selling price of $120 is not expected to change. Forrester's current break-even sales are $1,188,000 and current break-even units are 9,900. If Forrester purchases this new equipment, the revised contribution margin ratio would be:
Answer:
50%
Explanation:
Contribution margin is used to determine the profitability of a product. it is price less variable cost
Contribution margin ratio = (price - variable costs) / price
variable cost = 80 - 20 = 60
price = 120
(120 - 60) / 120 = 50%
A TV manufacturer offers warranties on its new TV sales. During December 2004, TV sales totaled $205,000. Past experience shows that warranty expense averages about 3% of the annual sales. What adjusting journal entry should be recorded on December 31, 2004 to account for the warranty expense
Answer:
Date Account Title Debit Credit
Dec 31, 2004 Warranty expense $6,150
Warranty Liability $6,150
Explanation:

= TV sales total * Warranty expense averages
= 205,000 * 3%
= $6,150
This will be credited to the Warranty liability account to reflect that the company potentially owes $6,150 in warranty expenses to people who purchased TVs.

Flagstaff Company has budgeted production units of 8,000 for July and 8,200 for August. The direct materials requirement per unit is 3 ounces (oz.). The company has determined that it wants to have safety stock of direct materials on hand at the end of each month to complete 25% of the units budgeted in the following month. There was 6,000 ounces of direct material in inventory at the start of July. The total cost of direct materials purchases for the July direct materials budget, assuming the materials cost $1.20 per ounce, is:____________
A) $28,800.
B) $28,980.
C) $21,600.
D) $28,620.
E) $36,180.
Answer:B) $28,980.
Explanation:
Beginning inventory is 6,000 ounces
Closing inventory = 8,200 × 3 ounces × 25% = 6,150ounces
Budgeted production = 8,000 × 3 ounces=24,000
Direct material to be purchased = Closing inventory + Budgeted production - Beginning inventory= 29,400 ounces
Direct material to be purchased = 6,150ounces +24,000- 6,000 ounces
= 24,150 ounces
Now,For $1.20 per pounce, it would be
= 24,150 ounces × $1.20
= $28,980.
