Answer: Both will raise the same amount
Explanation:
The government here is certain that it can achieve the same quantity and price regardless of if it uses a pollution tax or pollution allowance. This means that it would be charging the companies the same regardless of the method used.
Both methods would therefore yield the same amount if the government uses either of them.

A project has an expected risky cash flow of $500 in year 3. The risk-free rate is 4%, the expected market rate of return is 14%, and the project's beta is 1.20. Calculate the certainty equivalent cash flow for year 3, CEQ3. (Assume CAPM holds.)
The certainty equivalent cash flow for year 3, CEQ3 is $360.33
The computation of the certainty equivalent cash flow for year 3 is as follows:
But before that, the cost of equity should be determined via using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).
Cost of equity = Risk-free rate + beta × (expected market rate of return - risk-free rate)
= 4% + 1.20 × (14% - 4%)
= 16%
Now the certainty equivalent cash flow for year 3 is
= $500 ÷ (1+ 0.16)^3
= $360.33
Therefore we can conclude that the certainty equivalent cash flow for year 3, CEQ3 is $360.33

Using the FIFO inventory method, the amount allocated to ending inventory for June is
Answer:
$210,688
Explanation:
The LIFO method of accounting for inventory involves issuing the last items purchased first and those purchased first are issued last hence the acronym LIFO which means last in first out
Given that June 1 144 units $ 952 June 10 184 units 1472 June 15 184 units 1564 June 28 144 units 1296 $ 5284 A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 194 units on hand
Total number purchased during the month
= 144 + 184 + 184 + 144
= 656 units
Using the last in first out method, the 194 units left at the end would be made up of the 144 units purchased on June 1 and 50 units purchased on 10 June hence the amount allocated to ending inventory for June is
= 144 * $952 + 50 * $1472
= $210,688
Which of the following approaches for calculating the market value of a property involves estimating the dollar value associated with replacing the property new, as well as determining the loss in value due to physical, functional, and external obsolescence?
a. income approach
b. sales comparison approach
c. cost approach
d. Investment approach
Answer:
c. cost approach
Explanation:
The cost approach is a real estate valuation method in which the price estimated regarding the buyer that have to pay for the property and the same is equivalnet to the cost for creating a buidling.
Here the property value should be equivalent to the land cost also add the construction cost and minus the depreciation expense
So as per the given situation, it is the cost approach that determined the market value of the property
On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Honda Motor Company stock closed at ¥2,915 per share on Monday, June 6, 2016. Honda trades as an ADR on the NYSE. One underlying Honda share equals one ADR. On June 6, 2016, the ¥/$ exchange rate was ¥107.65/$1.00. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) At this exchange rate, what is the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR?
Answer:
$27.08
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR
Using this formula
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=Stock closed per share /Exchange rate
Let plug in the formula
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=¥2,915 / ¥107.65
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=$27.078
No-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR=$27.08 (Approximately)
Therefore the no-arbitrage U.S. dollar price of one ADR is $27.08
Dobles Corporation has provided the following data from its activity-based costing system:

The company makes 420 units of product D28K a year, requiring a total of 460 machine-hours, 80 orders, and 10 inspection-hours per year. The product's direct materials cost is $48.96 per unit and its direct labor cost is $25.36 per unit.
According to the activity-based costing system, the unit product cost of product D28K is closest to:
a. $95.34 per unit
b. $93.60 per unit
c. $74.32 per unit
d. $89.93 per unit
Answer:
Hence the correct option is option (a) i.e. $95.34 per unit.
Explanation:
Cost of 420 units of D28K product = 460 machine hour cost + 80 order cost + 10 inspection hour cost + 420 direct materials cost + 420 direct labor cost.
18000 machine hours = 228060
so 460 machine hours = 228060 x 460 /18000 = 5828.2
1200 orders = 34068
80 orders = 80 x 34068 / 1200 = 2271.2
1720 inspection hours = 125560
10 inspection hours = 10 x 125560/1720 = 730
So cost of 420 units of D28 products = 5828.2 + 2271.2 + 730 + 420 x 48.96 + 420 x 25.36
=40043.8
So cost of 1 D28K product = 40043.8 / 420 = 95.34

Ob. $16,800
Oc. 513,660
Od. $15.840
Answer:
$15,840
Explanation:
Present value = Future value / (1 + r)^n
Rate, r = 6% = 0.06
Future value = $20,000
Number of years, n = 4
Present value = $20000 / (1 + 0.06)^4
Present value = $20000 / 1.06^4
Present value = $20,000 / 1.26247696
Present value = $15841.873
Using the partial table of present values :
Present value = Future value * PV(6%, 4)
PV at 6%, 4 years = 0.792
Present value = $20,000 * 0.792 = $15,840
An individual taxpayer reports the following items for the current year: Ordinary income from Partnership A, operating a movie theater in which the taxpayer materially participates $70,000 Net loss from Partnership B, operating an equipment rental business in which the taxpayer does not materially participate (9,000) Rental income from building rented to a third party 7,000 Short-term capital gain from sale of stock 4,000 What is the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income for the year?
Answer:
$74,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income for the year
Taxpayer’s adjusted gross income=Net loss from Partnership B+Capital gain from sale of stock
Let plug in the formula
Taxpayer’s adjusted gross income=$70,000+ $4,000
Taxpayer’s adjusted gross income=$74,000
Therefore the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income for the year is $74,000

Waterway Industries was organized on January 1, 2021. During its first year, the corporation issued 2,400 shares of $50 par value preferred stock and 150,000 shares of $10 par value common stock. At December 31, the company declared the following cash dividends: 2021, $5,800; 2022, $13,100; and 2023, $28,800.
Required:
Show the allocation of dividends to each class of stock, assuming the preferred stock dividend is 5% and noncumulative.
Answer:
Preferred dividend is noncumulative which means that it will not accrue if company was unable to pay in any period.
Dividends in 2021
Preferred dividends:
= Number of preferred shares * par value * dividend percentage
= 2,400 * 50 * 5%
= $6,000
Dividends of $5,800 were declared which is not enough to cover even preferred shares so preferred shares will take all the dividends.
Preferred share dividends = $5,800
Common share dividends = $0
Dividends in 2022:
Preferred dividends = $6,000
Common dividends:
= Declared dividends - Preferred dividends
= 13,100 - 6,000
= $7,100
Dividends in 2023:
Preferred dividends = $6,000
Common dividends:
= Declared dividends - Preferred dividends
= 28,800 - 6,000
= $22,800
Wang Co. manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $540 per unit; variable costs are $324 per unit. Annual fixed costs are $836,000. Current sales volume is $4,290,000. Management targets an annual pre-tax income of $1,215,000. Compute the unit sales to earn the target pre-tax net income.
Answer: 9,495 units
Explanation:
First find the contribution margin:
= Sales price - Variable cost
= 540 - 324
= $216 per unit
The unit sales required can be calculated by the formula:
= (Annual pre-tax income target + Fixed cost) / Contribution margin
= (1,215,000 + 836,000) / 216
= 9,495.37 units
= 9,495 units
The differences between actual and standard costs are called __________ variances. cost profit quantity volume 2. A favorable cost variance results when actual cost is greater than standard cost at actual volumes. actual cost is less than standard cost at actual volumes. actual cost is equal to standard cost at actual volumes. actual cost is greater than standard cost at budgeted volumes.
Answer:
1. The differences between actual and standard costs are called
__________
variances.
2. A favorable cost variance results when
actual cost is less than standard cost
Explanation:
The cost variance is the difference calculated when either the actual cost is less than the standard cost or the standard cost is less than the actual cost. If they are equal, there is no variance. Variance reporting helps management to initiate corrective measures. It helps to improve performance, output, or workers' productivity.
The rate at which revenue was generated (in millions of dollars per year) for a certain company for the years 2010 through 2016 can be approximated by f(t)=348e0.22t (10≤t≤16), where t=10 corresponds to the start of the year 2010. Find and interpret ∫1016f(t)dt.
The revenue of a company represents the income generated by the company within a time frame. The total revenue generated by the company from the start of 2010 to the start of 2016 is $39.16 billion
Given that:
[tex]f(t) = 348e^{0.22t}[/tex] [tex]10 \le t \le 16[/tex]
First, we calculate the integral
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \int\limits^{16}_{10} {348e^{0.22t}} \, dt[/tex]
Remove the constant
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = 348\int\limits^{16}_{10} {e^{0.22t}} \, dt[/tex]
Now, integrate
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = 348 \times \frac{1}{0.22} (e^{0.22t})|\limits^{16}_{10}[/tex]
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} (e^{0.22t})|\limits^{16}_{10}[/tex]
Expand
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} (e^{0.22\times 16} -e^{0.22\times 10} )[/tex]
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} (e^{3.52} -e^{2.2} )[/tex]
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = \frac{ 348}{0.22} \times 24.759[/tex]
[tex]\int\limits^{16}_{10} {f(t)} \, dt = 39164.2[/tex]
From the question
[tex]t = 10[/tex] represents the start of 2010.
This means that
[tex]t = 16[/tex] represents the start of 2016.
So, the interpretation is:
The total revenue from the start of 2010 to the start of 2016 is $39.16 billion

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.

In 2012, Wingen Inc. sold 325,000 units at $8 each .Sales volume is expected to increase by 15 percent in 2013 while the price of each unit is expected to decrease by 15 percent. the expected sales revenue for 2013 is a. $373,750 b.$2,541,500 c.$1,878,500 d.$2,990,000
Answer:
$2541500
Explanation:
Given :
2012 :
Units sold = 325,000
Price per unit = $8
2013 :
Projected increase in volume = 15%
Projected decrease in price = 15%
Expected revenue = sales price * volume sold
Volume in 2013:
Projected Unit sold in 2013 = (1 + 0.15) * 325000 = 373750
units
Projected Price in 2013 = (1 - 0.15) * Price in 2012 = (1 - 0.15) * $8 = $6.80
Expected revenue = $6.80 * 373750 = $2541500

Ray acquired an activity several years ago, and in the current year, it generates a loss of $50,000. Ray has AGI of $140,000 before considering the loss from the activity.
If the activity is a bakery and Ray is not a material participant, what is his AGI?
Answer:
adjusted gross income should be $140,000
Explanation:
The computation of the adjusted gross income is given below:
Given that
There is the loss of $50,000
And, the adjusted gross income prior considering the loss should be $140,000
So here $50,000 loss should be suspended under the rule of the passive loss as ray should not be the material participant
Therefore adjusted gross income should be $140,000

QS 8-7 Computing revised depreciation LO C2 On January 1, the Matthews Band pays $65,800 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for four years and after four years it can sell the equipment for $2,000. Matthews Band uses straight-line depreciation but realizes at the start of the second year that this equipment will last only a total of three years. The salvage value is not changed. Compute the revised depreciation for both the second and third years.
Answer:
$23,925 for both the second and third years
Explanation:
Depreciation is the systemic recognition of the cost of an asset in the profit or loss statement. It is an expense.
Depreciation may be computed on a straight line basis as
Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/estimated useful life
Given that Matthews Band pays $65,800 for sound equipment. The band estimates it will use this equipment for four years and after four years it can sell the equipment for $2,000
Depreciation in the first year of use
= ($65,800 - $2,000)/4
= $15,950
The carrying amount at the start of the second year
= $65,800 - $15,950
= $49,850
Depreciation for the second year and 3rd year after the company realizes that this equipment will last only a total of three years
= ($49,850 - $2,000)/2
= $47,850/2
= $23,925
