Compute straight-line depreciation on the building at the end of one year, assuming an estimated 10-year useful life and a $16,000 estimated residual value. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)What should be the book value of (a) the land and (b) the building at the end of year 2
Answer:
Missing word "Bridge City Consulting bought a building and the land on which it is located for $120,000 cash. The land is estimated to represent 70 percent of the purchase price. The company paid $10,000 for building renovations before it was ready for use."
Total Cost of Land and Building (100%) = $120,000
Cost of Land (70%) = $84,000
Cost of Building (30%) = $36,000
Cost of Building Renovations = $10,000
Total Cost of Building = $36,000 + $10,000
Total Cost of Building = $46,000
1. Annual Depreciation(Year End Depreciation) = (Cost of Building - Residual Value)/ Number of Year
Annual Depreciation = $46,000 - $16,000 / 10
Annual Depreciation = $30,000 / 10
Annual Depreciation = $3,000
2. Book Value of Land at the end of two years = $84,000
Book Value of Building at the end of two years = $46,000 - ($3,000*2 year) = $46,000 - $6,000 = $40,000
Hence, Book Value of Land and Building at the end of two year is = $84,000 + $40,000 = $124,000
You have just started a new job and plan to save $5,200 per year for 36 years until you retire. You will make your first deposit in one year. How much will you have when you retire if you earn an annual interest rate of 9.54 percent?
a. $1,331,411.17
b. $1,394,509.68
c. $1,346,423.14
d. $1,268,312.65
e. $1,333,878.83
Answer:
$1,394,509.68
Explanation:
Savings amount = $5200
Period = 36 years
Interest = 9.54 percent
We solve for the future value of the annuity
= $5200[(1+0.0954)³⁶-1/0.0954]
= 5200 x [1.0954³⁶-1/0.0954]
= 5200 x 268.1749
= 1,394,509.681 dollars
Therefore after retirement and at an interest rate of 9.54 percent, you would be earning 1,394,509.681 dollars.

A company projects an increase in net income of $108000 each year for the next five years if it invests $900000 in new equipment. The equipment has a 5-year life and an estimated salvage value of $300000. What is the annual rate of return on this investment?
a. 20.5%
b. 31.0%
c. 30.0%
d. 30.8%
Answer:
18 %
Explanation:
Annual rate of return on this investment = annual profit / average investment x 100
where,
annual profit = $108000
average investment = (initial cost + salvage value) ÷ 2
= ($900000 + $300000) ÷ 2
= $600,000
therefore,
annual rate of return on this investment = $108000 / $600,000 x 100
= 18 %
A large bakery buys flour in 25-pound bags. The bakery uses an average of 1,215 bags a year. Preparing an order and receiving a shipment of flour involves a cost of $10 per order. Annual carrying costs are $75 per bag.
Required:
a. Determine the economic order quantity. (Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.) Economic order quantity bags
b. What is the average number of bags on hand? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.) Average number of bags
c. How many orders per year will there be? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole number.) Number of orders per year
d. Compute the total cost of ordering and carrying flour.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below
a. The economic order quantity is
= sqrt ((2 × annual demand × ordering cost) ÷ carrying cost)
= sqrt ((2 × 1,215 × $10) ÷ $75)
= 18 units
b) Average number of bags on hand is
= EOQ ÷ 2
= 18 ÷ 2
= 9
c) Orders per year is
= D ÷ EOQ
= 1215 ÷ 18
= 67.5
= 68
d) Total cost = Total carrying cost+ Total ordering cost
= (Q ÷ 2)H +(D ÷ Q)S
= (18 ÷ 2)75 + (1215 ÷ 18) × 10
= 675 + 675
= $1350

Bell Corporation reports that at an activity level of 8,700 units, its total variable cost is $653,109, and its total fixed cost is $658,416.
Required: For the activity level of 8,800 units, assume this level is within the relevant range. Compute: the total variable cost, the total fixed cost, the total cost, the average variable cost per unit, the average fixed cost per unit, and the average total cost per unit.
There is not a word length requirement for this question; however, you must show your work.
Answer:
Bell Corporation
The total variable cost is = $660,616
The total fixed cost is = $658,416
The total cost is = $1,319,032
The average variable cost per unit is = $75.07
The average total cost per unit is = $149.89
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Current activity level = 8,700 units
Variable cost based on the current activity level = $653,109
Unit variable cost = $75.07 ($653,109/8,700)
Fixed cost = $658,416
At activity level of 8,800 units, since 8,800 units are within the relevant range:
The total variable cost = $660,616 (8,800 * $75.07)
The total fixed cost = $658,416 (same as at 8,700 units)
The total cost = $1,319,032 ($660,616 + $658,416)
The average variable cost per unit = $75.07 ($653,109/8,700)
The average total cost per unit = $149.89 ($1,319,032/8,800)
1. Describe how a global project can be more complex than a project performed within just one country. How might these elements affect the successful outcome of the global project
Answer:
Globalization alters the project's characteristics. Multinational and multilingual initiatives are possible in global projects. Managers must be able to communicate with individuals from diverse nations.

Cultural sensitivity
Learn about the other organizations' traditions.
ability to operate in a fast-paced, unpredictably changing workplace
Create a productive team.
Develop a sense of trust
All of these elements are equally crucial for the project's worldwide success.
The initiatives that are held at a worldwide level are more difficult.

Jefferson tutoring had the following payroll information on Feb 28:
Gross pay: 4,000
Cumulative earnings prior to this payroll: 4,000
Assume:
FICA tax rates are OASDI 6.2% on a limit of 117,000 and medicare 1.45%.
State unemployment tax rate is 2% on the first 7,000.
Federal unemployment tax rate is 0.8% on the first 7,000
Using the information above the journal entry to record the payroll tax expense for jefferson tutoring would include:____.
A. a credit to FUTA payable for 24.
B. a debit to payroll tax expense in the amount of 390.
C. a credit to SUTA payable for 60.
D. all of the above.
Answer: D. all of the above.
Explanation:
FUTA:
Cumulative earnings were $4,000. FUTA is one the first $7,000 which means that only $3,000 is left to be taxed on account of the cumulative earnings prior to this payroll having been taxed:
= 0.8% * 3,000
= $24
This will be credited to FUTA Payable to recognize that Jefferson owes this liability.
SUTA:
Same goes for SUTA:
= 2% * 3,000
= $60
This will be credited to SUTA Payable to recognize that Jefferson owes this liability.
Payroll tax expense:
= FICA taxes + Medicare + FUTA + SUTA
= ((6.2% + 1.45%) * 4,000) + 24 + 60
= $390
This will be debited to Payroll Tax expense because expenses are debited when they increase.

3. Which investment alternative (if either) would you recommend that the company accept?
Answer:
$-32,775.48
$185,710.69
Project B
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.
When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.
Project A
Cash flow in year 0 = -$110,000
Cash flow in year 1 - 5 = $20,000
Cash flow in year 6 = $20,000 + $8,600 = 28,600
I = 16%
NPV = $-32775.48
Project B
Cash flow in year 0 = -$110,000
Cash flow in year 1 - 5 = $68,000
Cash flow in year 6 = $68,000 + $110,000 = $178,000
I = 16%
NPV = $185,710.69
Project B should be chosen because its NPV is positive
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

= $90,000 × 13% + $60,000 × 6.6%
= $15,660.00
And,
standard deviation of return is
= $90,000 × 13% × 44% + $60,000 × 6.6%
= $5,148 + $3,960
= $9,108.00
In this way it should be calculated
Four fundamental factors affect the cost of money:
1. The return that borrowers expect to earn on their investments
2. The preference of savers to spend their income in the current period rather than delay their consumption until some future period
3. The risks associated with the investment
4. Expected inflation
Consider the following statements that address these factors, and indicate if you think each statement is true or false.
Statement
True
False
Investments providing cash flows that are more likely to equal their expected value are said to exhibit more risk.
The actual relationship between the risk-free rate of return (r*r*) and the expected future inflation rate or inflation premium (IP) is actually multiplicative—that is, [(1 + rRFrRF) x (1 + IP)] – 1—but it is often simplified to reflect an additive relationship.
All things being equal, rational savers and investors prefer to invest in an asset that provides a 12% return rather than one that provides an 8% return.
All things being equal, savers and investors prefer more risk to less risk and prefer lower risk premiums on projects exhibiting higher levels of risk.
On average and everything else held constant, an investment that can provide a 4% return should attract more investment capital from savers/investors than an otherwise identical investment that can generate a 12% return.
Answer:
True statement is:
All thing being equal, savers and investors prefer more risk to less risk and prefer lower risk premiums on projects exhibiting higher levels of risk.
Explanation:
Investors wish to receive less risk and more return. They prefer from more risk to lesser risk and receive risk premium on project that exhibit higher level of risk and delayed compensation. A project with 12% return will be more riskier than a project with 8% return. Rate of return increases as the level of risk increases.

Economic growth and public policy
Suppose an American buys stock issued by an Argentinian corporation. The Argentinian firm uses the proceeds from the sale to build a new office complex. This is an example of foreign investment in Argentina. Which of the following policies are consistent with the goal of increasing productivity and growth in developing countries?
a. Provide tax breaks and patents for firms that pursue research and development in health and sciences.
b. Give families cash payments on the condition that their children show up for school and medical exams.
c. Increase taxes on income from savings.
d. Protect property rights and enforce contracts.
Answer:
a. Foreign Portfolio Investment
b. a. Provide tax breaks and patents for firms that pursue research and development in health and sciences.
d. Protect property rights and enforce contracts.
Explanation:
This is an example of Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI). Foreign portfolio investment is when an entity from a foreign country invests in another country by buying the shares of a company in the local country. The American company bought shares in Argentina so the qualifies as FPI.
To increase productivity companies that are pursuing research should be given patents and tax breaks. The tax breaks will enable them have more money to reinvest into the research and the patent will provide incentive to them to continue the research knowing full well that they will be compensated by being the only ones to be able to use the technology invented for some time.
Also protecting property rights and enforcing contracts encourages investment in a country because people will be more trusting of making a return from business dealings. Higher investment leads to more productivity and growth.
