     Cash                                                              1632000 Cr

Explanation:

The redemption of bonds before the maturity usually requires a payment for redemption which is a certain percentage of its face value. It is usually higher than the face value. The above bonds are redeemed at 102 which means at 102% of the face value of the bonds. Thus, the cash paid to redeem the bonds is,

Cash = 1600000 * 102%  =  1632000

The bonds have a carrying value, which is the face value less discount or add premium, of,

Carrying value = 1600000 - 4800  =  $1595200

If they are redeemed for an amount in excess of the carrying value, they are redeemed at a loss.

The loss on redemption is,

Loss = 1595200 - 1632000 = $36800

Answers

Answer:

$4,000$1,000

Explanation:

1. Financing Cashflows relate to cash spent or received for the capital used in the company. These include Equity, Long term borrowings and dividends. Interest payments go to the Operating Cashflow and investments go to the Investing cashflow.

Financing Cashflow is;

= Inflow - Outflow

= +20,000 - 16,000

= +$4,000

2. Investing Cashflows related to cash spent or received from fixed assets as well as the securities of other companies. Cash collections does not fall here but rather under Operating cashflows along with depreciation.

Consider a basket of consumer goods that costs $90 in the United States. The same basket of goods costs CNY 105 in China.
Holding constant the cost of the basket in each country, compute the real exchange rates that would result from the two nominal exchange rates in the following table.
Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars) Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) Nominal Exchange Rate (Yuan per dollar) Real Exchange Rate (Baskets of Chinese goods per basket of U.S goods)
90 105 7.00
90 105 10.50

Answers

Answer:

The real exchange rates that would result from the two nominal exchange rates are:

For the first row in the table RER is 6.

For the second row in the table RER is 9.

Note: See the attached excel file for the table.

Explanation:

Note: The table in the question is merged together. It is therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached excel file for the sorted table.

The answer to the explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:

The real exchange rate (RER) between the the currencies of two counties can be described as the multiplication of the nominal exchange and the ratio of baskets of goods between these two countries.

RER can can therefore be calculated using the following formula:

RER = (e * P*) / P ................................. (1)

Where, from the question;

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan)

For the first row in the table:

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 7

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

RER = (7 * 90) / 105

RER = 630 / 105

RER = 6

For the second row in the table:

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 10.50

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

RER = (10.50 * 90) / 105

RER = 945 / 105

RER = 9

The real exchange rates that should lead from the two nominal exchange rates should be 6 and 9.

Calculation of the real exchange rate:

RER = (e * P*) / P ................................. (1)

Here,

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan)

So,

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 7

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

Now

RER = (7 * 90) / 105

RER = 630 / 105

RER = 6

Now

e = Nominal exchange rate or Yuan per dollar = 10.50

P* = Cost of Basket in U.S (Dollars)  = $90

P = Cost of Basket in China (Yuan) = 105

So,

RER = (10.50 * 90) / 105

RER = 945 / 105

RER = 9

Bond payable Dr $78,000

Loss on redemption Dr $5,265

Discount on bonds payable Cr $1,755

Cash. Cr 81,510

Explanation:

Bonds issued at 97%

$390,000 × 97%

= $378,300

Discount difference between cash proceeds and face value

= $390,000 -$378,300

= $11,700

If bonds are discounted using straight line,

$11,700 ÷ 20 year

= $585

At 2022, there is 5 amortization

= $585 × 5

= $2,925

Discount value

= $11,700 - $2,925

= $8,775

Carrying value

= $390,000 - $8,775

= $381,225

Therefore, $390,000 bonds payable × 20% × 104.5%

= $81,510

Carrying book value of 20%

$381,225 × 20%

= $76,245

Loss on redemption

= $81,510 - $76,245

= $5,265

Therefore,

20% of the face value

= $390,000 × 20%

= $78,000

20% of the discount

= $8,775 × 20%

= $1,755

Loss on redemption = $5,265

Cash disbursement = $81,510

Mogul Company ships merchandise to Ski Outfit in a consignment arrangement. The arrangement specifies that Ski Outfit will attempt to sell the merchandise, and in return, Mogul will pay to Ski Outfit a commission of 25% of the selling price on any merchandise sold. During the year, Mogul ships inventory with a cost of $81,000 to Ski Outfit and pays shipping costs of $8,700. By the end of the year, $61,000 of the merchandise has been sold to customers for a total of $86,000. Mogul allocates $6,500 of the shipping costs to inventory sold and the other $2,200 to inventory not sold. Mogul also paid advertising costs during the year of $10,500. What amount of inventory will Mogul report at year end

Answers

Answer:

$22,200

Explanation:

With regards to the above information Mogul company,

Cost of goods

= $81,000 + $8,700

= $89,700

= $61,000 + $6,500

= $67,500

Inventory = Cost of goods - Cost of goods sold

= $89,700 - $67,500

= $22,200

It therefore means that the amount of inventory Magu company will report at the year end is $22,200

A newly formed firm must decide on a plant location. There are two alternatives under consideration: locate near the major raw materials or locate near the major customers. Locating near the raw materials will result in lower fixed and variable costs than locating near the market, but the owners believe there would be a loss in sales volume because customers tend to favor local suppliers. Revenue per unit will be $172 in either case.

A monopolist that practices perfect price discrimination has the same deadweight loss triangle as the single-price monopolist.
a) true
b) false

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the price discrimination strategy refers to a technique used by the companies in order to charge different prices to the different consumers regarding the fact of how much would they be able to pay for the product. When it comes to monopolies, a perfect price discrimination strategy would try as best as possible to capture the majority of the zone known as the "consumer surplus". And that is why that a company with a perfect price discrimination would face a small deadweight loss area due to the fact that with that strategy of price the monopolist will absorve as much as possible of that area becuase the triangle is half consumer surplus and half producer surplus.

Direct Labor Variances Glacier Bicycle Company manufactures commuter bicycles from recycled materials. The following data for October are available: Quantity of direct labor used 5,000 hrs. Actual rate for direct labor $22.75 per hr. Bicycles completed in October 800 bicycles Standard direct labor per bicycle 6.0 hrs. Standard rate for direct labor $24.00 per hr. a. Determine for October the direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total direct labor cost variance. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

Answers

Answer:

a) i. Direct labor rate variance = Quantity of direct labor used * (Actual rate for direct labor - Standard rate for direct labor)

= 5,000*(22.75-24)

= -6,250 (Favorable)

ii. Direct labor time variance =  Standard rate for direct labor * (Quantity of direct labor used - Bicycles completed in October * Standard direct labor per bicycle)

= 24 * (5000 - 800 * 6)

= 4,800 (Unfavorable)

iii. Total Direct labor cost variance =  (Quantity of direct labor used * Actual rate for direct labor) - (Bicycles completed in October * Standard direct labor per bicycle * Standard rate for direct labor)

= (5000 * 22.75) - (800 * 6 * 24)

= -1450 (Favorable)

Answer:

The total cost variance of labor will be "-1,450 (favorable)". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According the question,

Direct labor rate variance will be:

⇒  [tex]5000\times (22.75-24)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]5000\times (-1.25)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]-6,250 \ (favorable)[/tex]

Direct labor time variance will be:

⇒  [tex]24\times (5000-800\times 6)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]24\times 200[/tex]

⇒  [tex]4,800 \ (unfavorable)[/tex]

Now,

The Total Direct labor cost variance will be:

⇒  [tex](5000\times 22.75)-(800\times 6\times 24)[/tex]

⇒  [tex](113,750)-(115,200)[/tex]

⇒  [tex]-1,450 \ (favorable)[/tex]

Debra and Merina sell electronic equipment and supplies through their partnership. They wish to expand their computer lines and decide to admit Wayne to the partnership. Debra's capital is $200,000, Merina's capital is $160,000, and they share income in a ratio of 3:2, respectively.Required:Record Wayne's admission for each of the following independent situations:a. Wayne directly purchases half of Merina's investment in the partnership for $97,000.b. Wayne invests the amount needed to give him a one-third interest in the partnership's capital if no goodwill or bonus is recorded.

Answers

Answer:

a. Merina's captal is $160,000. Half would be $80,000.

Entry;

DR Merina, Capital ..................................................................$80,000

CR Wayne, Capital ....................................................................................$80,000

(To record purchase of half of Merina Capital)

b.

DR Cash......................................................................$180,000

CR Wayne, Capital.........................................................................$180,000

(To record Wayne investment)

Working

The current Capital amount is;

= 200,000 +160,000

= $360,000

If Wayne joins and adds to this such that he owns 1/3 then;

2/3x = 360,000

x = 360,000/2/3

x = $540,000

Wayne's share would be;

= 1/3 * 540,000

= $180,000

The journal entries that would take place will take effect as A- A debit in Merina's capital amount and Cash account as $17000 and a credit effect in Wayne's capital account. The amount of debit and credit will be $97000.

And for B- There will be Debit in Cash account effecting a credit in The Wayne's capital account. The amount effecting the debit and credit side will be $180,000.

The journal entries are added in the images attached to the answer. The entries would take place in the journal entries on the respective date of their occurrence.( Image attached below).

When Wayne is introduced as partner for one third share the calculation of the amount of his capital would be shown as considering the capital as x. The capital by existing partners is $360000. (Image below).

,[tex]\dfrac{2}{3}x\ = 360000[/tex]

[tex]x= \dfrac {360000}{\dfrac{2}{3}}[/tex]

Now the value of x will be calculated as

[tex]x= \dfrac{540000}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=180000[/tex]

Therefore Wayne's capital will be calculated as $180,000, so he will be required to bring in additional $180,000 capital in the firm for getting one third share in the profits and losses of the company.

Hence, the correct statements for A will be that Wayne pays $97000 which will be divided in Merina's capital and cash accounts in the proportion of $80000 and $17000 respectively.

A producer can produce a product at a variable cost per unit of $7. The producer can sell the product for $10 each. If the fixed cost is $60,000.

Required:
a. How many units must the producer sell to break-even?
b. What is revenue at 35,000 units?
c. What is total cost at 35,000 units?
d. How many units must the producer sell in order to earn a profit of $60,000?

Answers

Answer:

a.

Break even in units = 20000 units

b.

Revenue at 35000 units = $350000

c.

Total cost (35000 units) = $305000

d.

Units required for target profit = 40000 units

Explanation:

a.

The break even in units is the number of units that must be sold in order to earn enough total revenue as to cover total costs. The break even in units can be calculated as follows,

Break even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit

Where,

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution margin per unit = 10 - 7 =$3

Break even in units = 60000 / 3

Break even in units = 20000 units

b.

Revenue = Price * Quantity

Revenue at 35000 units = 10 * 35000

Revenue at 35000 units = $350000

c.

Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost

Total cost (35000 units) = 7 * 35000 + 60000

Total cost (35000 units) = $305000

d.

To calculate the units required to earn a target profit, we simply add the target profit amount to the fixed costs in the break even in units equation.

Thus, the number of units required to earn a target profit of $60000 is,

Units required for target profit = (60000 + 60000) / 3

Units required for target profit = 40000 units

Answers

Answer:

a-1. Calculate the new book value per share.

current book value = stocks outstanding x book value = 5,000,000 x $10 = $50,000,000

new book value = $50,000,000 + $50,000,000 = $100,000,000

new stocks issued = $50,000,000 / $40 = 1,250,000

total stocks outstanding = 5,000,000 + 1,250,000 = 6,250,000

new book value per stock = $100,000,000 / 6,250,000 = $16

a-2. Calculate the new EPS.

old EPS = $4,000,000 / 5,000,000 = $0.80 per stock

new EPS = $4,850,000 / 6,250,000 = $0.776 per stock

a-3. Calculate the new stock price.

price to earnings ratio = $40 / $0.80 = 50

new stock price:

50 = new stock price / $0.776

new stock price = 50 x $0.776 = $38.80

a-4. Calculate the new market-to-book ratio.

market to book ratio = market capitalization / book value = $242,500,000 / $100,000,000 = 2.425

b. What would the new net income for the company have to be for the stock price to remain unchanged?

0.8 = net income / 6,250,000

net income = 6,250,000 x 0.8 = $5,000,000

air pollution causes capital to wear out more rapidly, doubling the rate of depreciation. How would this affect economic growth?

Answers

Answer:

The economic growth will be lower.

Explanation:

The rise in pollution and the doubling of the rate of depreciation will affect economic growth adversely. However, rapid wear and tear of capital will cost the person and it will reduce the purchasing power. Thus, lower purchasing power will result in lower economic growth. Moreover, pollution creates three main problems that are reduced labor productivity, rise in health problems, and loss of crop yield. So the reduction in all these factors will also slow down economic growth.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B. He believes in semi-strong form market efficiency.

Explanation:

Whether Jack Bogle believed in the efficient market hypothesis was controversial. One of his famous saying on the issue: "Whatever the consensus on the Efficient Market Hypothesis, I know of no serious academic, professional money manager, trained security analyst, or intelligent individual investor who would disagree with the thrust of EMH: The stock market itself is a demanding taskmaster. It sets a high hurdle that few investors can leap.” He obviously believed although someone still doubts on the truth of the hypothesis, the market usually reflects the right value at the end.
