Answer:
A) $790.63
B) $718.75
C) $503.13
Explanation:
a. Interest rate = 10%, monthly rate = 10%/12 = 0.10/12
Number of years = 60-20 = 40 years = 40*12 = 480 months
Goal = FV = 5,000,000
The monthly savings needed if employers offers no match =PMT(rate,nper,pv,fv) =PMT(0.10/12,480,0,5000000)
= $790.63
b. If employer offers a 10% match.
Then monthly savings needed
= 790.63/1.10
= 718.75
Monthly savings needed with 10% match by employer
= $718.75
c. Tax savings are 24%+6% = 30%.
So on the contribution of 718.75, you save a 30% tax. So. tax savings = 718.75*0.30 = $ 215.63
So, monthly contribution taking into account tax savings and employer match
= 718.75 -215.62
= $503.13
On January 1, Eastern College received $1,280,000 from its students for the spring semester that it recorded in Unearned Tuition and Fees. The term spans four months beginning on January 2 and the college spreads the revenue evenly over the months of the term. What amount of tuition revenue should the college recognize on February 28? Assume the college prepares monthly financial statements.a. $640,000.b. $1,280,000.c. $880,000.d. $960,000.e. $320,000.
Answer:
e. $320,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine amount of tuition revenue should the college recognize on February 28
Using this formula
Tuition revenue =Amount received/Term spans
Let plug in the formula
Tuition revenue=$1,280,000 /4 months
Tuition revenue=$320,000
Therefore amount of tuition revenue should the college recognize on February 28 is $320,000
Leonard is creating disaster recovery documents for his company's online operations. He is documenting metrics for a measurable SLA that outlines when you can expect operations to be back online and how much data loss can be tolerated when recovering from an outage. Which metrics is he documenting
Answer:
RTO, RPO
Explanation:
Recovery point objective (RPO)
This simply measures the amount of data that may be lost in real sense due to system failure. It covers the volumes of files that must be gotten back from backup storage so as the normal operations can start agai (data loss)
RTO (recovery time objective)
This is simply regarded as the amount or the timelind by which a business process must be put in place or restored after a disaster occurs.(downtime). It is the time limit at most that is taken to put in place or restore an organization's information system following a disaster occurrence, In layman term is how much time do we have to get everything up and working again.
The four disaster recovery strategies includes
1. Backup and Restore
2. Pilot light
3. Warm standby
4. Hot site/multi-site approach.
A company uses return on investment (ROI) to measure the performance of its business units. The company manufactures and distributes consumer goods. Last year, management identified a possible shortage of raw materials. To mitigate this risk, a large amount of raw material was bought in advance and stored in the manufacturing plant inventory. As a result of this decision, ROI will A. Have an unpredictable change. B. Decrease. C. Increase. D. Not change.
Answer: B. Decrease
Explanation:
Return on investment refers to the ratio between the net income and investment. It should be noted that a high return on investment implies that the investment's gains compare favourably to the cost.
In this scenario, since a large amount of raw material was bought in advance and stored in the manufacturing plant inventory, this will lead to an increase in the cost of production which therefore will reduce the return in investment.
Therefore, the correct option is B.

Answer:
a. Net profit margin for 2019 = 35.93%
b. Asset turnover for 2019 = 0.29 times
c. Return on assets = 10.24%
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is thereore provided before answering the question as follows:
The following information was taken from the income statement and balance sheet of The Perryman Company for the years 2018 and 2019:
2019 2018
Sales revenues $590,000 $574,000
Net income 212,000 184,000
Total assets 2,142,000 1,998,000
Total stockholders’ equity 712,000 690,000
Compute the following ratios for 2019:
Net profit margin
Asset turnover
Return on assets
The answers are now explained as follows:
a. Net profit margin for 2019
This can be calculated as follows:
Net profit margin for 2019 = Net income in 2019 / Sales revenues in 2019 = $212,000 / $590,000 = 0.3593, or 35.93%
b. Asset turnover for 2019
This can be calculated as follows:
Asset turnover for 2019 = Sales revenues / Average total assets = Sales revenues in 2019 / ((Total assets in 2019 + Total assets in 2018) / 2) = $590,000 / (($2,142,000 + $1,998,000) / 2) = 0.29 times
c. Return on assets for 2019
This can be calculated as follows:
Return on assets = Net income / Average total assets = Net income in 2019 / ((Total assets in 2019 + Total assets in 2018) / 2) = $212,000 / (($2,142,000 + $1,998,000) / 2) = 0.1024, or 10.24%
Future pension liabilities are estimated based on all of the following except a.expected employee compensation levels. b.federal withholding income tax. c.employee life expectancy. d.employee turnover.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
The correct option is B. - federal withholding income tax.
Pension liability is the amount of money that a company or government at any level(federal or state) has to account for in order to make future pension payments. It is a future payment that a company or government is obligated to pay its retired employees.
They take into considerations:
1. Their employees turnover
2. Their employees life expectancy
3. Their employees compensation level.
Federal tax level is not the issue because the payment is futuristic and federal tax can change.

BLACK DIAMOND COMPANY Production Budget (in units)Third Quarter
Budgeted ending inventory (skis) 4,500
Add budgeted sale 160,000
Required units of available production 164,500
(4500+160,000)
Deduct beginning inventory (skis) (6,000)
Units to be manufactured 158,500
(164,500-6,000)
Therefore the third - quarter production budget for skis is 158,500
Feedback is important in improving your performance, and we should solicit feedback, and not just wait until someone provides us with feedback. Group of answer choices
a. True
b. False
Answer:
The given statement is "True".
Explanation:
Feedback would be a significant aspect in improving the accomplishment or organization's success.Requesting or waiting for such feedback might contribute to less and less input, although the organization must request for input, this same person might communicate with the organization by requesting comments.Thus the above is the correct answer.
In order to update a production process, a company can spend money now or four years from now. If the amount now would be $20,000, what equivalent amount could the company spend four years from now at a compound interest rate of 15% per year?(All the alternatives presented below were calculated using compound interest factor tables including all decimal places
Answer: $34,980.13
Explanation:
The amount that the company will spend 4 years from now is simply the future value of the amount that it can spend today.
The amount to be spent today is $20,000 so the amount to be spent 4 years from now is the future value of $20,000:
= Amount * (1 + rate) ^ number of years
= 20,000 * ( 1 + 15%)⁴
= $34,980.13

Explanation:
If the potential customers belong to the same segment, display comparable characteristics, and choose the same product qualities consistent with their segment, then which condition for the ideal market segment approach should be used
Answer: internally homogenous
Explanation:
Since the potential customers belong to the same segment, display comparable characteristics, and choose the same product qualities that are consistent with their segment, then the condition for the ideal market segment approach which should be used is the internally homogeneous.
On the other hand, if the potential customers are in different segments, have different characteristics, and choose different product qualities, then the externally homogeneous will be ideal.

Reasons why South African post office taking private courier companies to court
Answer:
Explanation:
As the only operator of this kind in South Africa, the Post Office has the exclusive right to provide delivery services for all letters, postcards, printed matter, small parcels, and other postal articles up to and including 1kg.
PostNet was initially ordered to stop delivering all packages weighing 1kg and less by 17 March 2020. However, it secured an interdict which allowed it to continue to deliver these packages until the full challenge was heard in the Gauteng High Court.
The Post Office, Postnet and the South African Express Parcel Association (SAEPA) are now set to head to court in a move that could have ramifications for the entire courier industry in South Africa.
Icasa spokesperson Paseka Maleka told BusinessDay that the regulator would give its support to the Post Office as it was following the letter of the law, which allowed private couriers to only deliver food items in the 1kg or less category.
“Icasa’s mandate is to implement what the law requires, and we are doing exactly that,” he said.
“There are exemptions that deal with businesses that do not fall under postal services. Uber Eats, Mr Delivery, etc are such businesses. Obviously, one cannot expect Sapo to be delivering pizza to a consumer,” he said.

Answer:
7.38%
8.23%
7.01%
9.17%
Explanation:
Rate of return = (future value / amount invested)^(1/n) - 1
n = number of years
a. (788.17 / 360)^(1/11) - 1 = 7.38%
b. (11.499.87 / 3000) ^(1/17) - 1 = 8.23
c. (140,000 / 31,542.31)^(1/22) - 1 = 7.01
d. (1,100,000 / 32895.12)^(1/40) - 1 = 9.17
A popular hotel has continued to lose business in its room service food sales over the last five years. Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process explain what you would do in each step of the process to improve the sales - provide relevant, practical details. What statistics would you apply and why?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process, I will explain what I would do in each step of the process to improve the sales.
DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and control.
What I would do first is, of course, define the nature of the problem. To define exactly what is the root of the drop in sales in the hotel. That would allow me to establish proper goals and define a strategy to implement. If a need to do surveys to customers or unsatisfied clients, I would do that. Listening to customer feedback would provide the necessary information.
Then, I have to measure the performance of my employees. Monitoring and evaluate the productivity of the people who work in the organization.
I have to analyze if the productivity ratio of each employee to know if they are performing to the maximum of their capabilities.
In this case, I could use a Pareto chart or the 80-20 rule, to assess productivity in the company.
I have to pay attention to the causes of poor performance and poor quality service. There is an interesting analysis called Root Cause Analysis (RCA) that can be useful in this case.
Once identified and eliminated the root or causes of the problems, then it comes de Improve the process to enhance the performance in every area of the organization. I would have to get people on the same page and focus on one problem at a time to doing things right.
Another model that could be useful in this scenario would be Design of Experiments, commonly known as DOE, which helps resolve complex issues
Finally, the control of everything implementation and solution to confirm it has been established the right way with the desired results. This could be part of the continuing Quality Control process- The poke yoke system would be a good option to be contemplated.
Assume that you are a loan officer of a bank. A local church is seeking a $4 million, 20-year loan to construct a new classroom building. Church officers submit a comprehensive financial report that was audited by a reputable CPA firm. In summary form (the actual statement showed details), the church’s statement of revenues and expenditures indicated the following (in millions):
Revenues from dues and contributions .... $1.8
Revenues from other sources ....... 0.2
Total revenues ............. $2.0
Less: total expenditures .......... 2.0
Excess of revenues over expenditures .... $0.0
The church's balance sheet reported assets, mainly cash and investments (at market value), of $0.2 million. In addition, a note to the financial statements indicated that equipment is approximately $3 million. The church has no outstanding debt.
a. Is there any information in the financial statements that would make you reluctant to approve the loan? If so, indicate and explain.
b. Is there any other financial information of the type likely to be reported in a conventional annual report that you would like to review prior to making a loan decision? If so, indicate and explain.
c. Is there any other information, of any type, that you would like to review prior to making a loan decision? If so, indicate and explain.
d. Comment on the inherent limitations of the financial statements of this church, or any comparable not-for-profit organization, as a basis for making loan decisions.
Answer:
Explanation:
a.
There is little information on how funds are used or how much money is spent to manage the church. The financial statements have been prepared incorrectly.
Interpretation:
While drafting the financial accounts, the church committed many errors. The church's revenue is equivalent to its daily operations operating expenditures. They have approximately $3 million in funding assets that they do not owe any money on.
It may be deduced that the church is attempting to preserve asymmetric information, and therefore it will be better to justify its sources of income and use of money in order to determine whether they can or they cannot pay the debt.
b.
The revenue from various channels must be detailed in the yearly report so that the loan officer may make an informed judgment.
Interpretation:
Since payments and contributions account for 90% of revenue and revenue from other sources accounts for 10%, it's surprising how the church earns money in other ways as stated on the income statement. As a result, it's important to understand what other potential revenue streams the church has before approving the loan.
c.
The officer in charge of the loan should check the church's book records to make sure and guarantee that there are no outstanding loans. This situation necessitates a thorough examination and assessment.
Interpretation:
The church has $3 million worth of equipment. The church's expenses, on the other hand, are equivalent to the church's income. As a result, it's unclear how the church acquired the equipment without taking out a loan. As a result, the church must be urged to produce a full breakdown of its expenses, which may be thoroughly and fully studied to see whether there are any financing charges that the church is attempting to hide in its yearly reports.
d.
There is no direct or primary source of income for the church. It solely makes money from charity donations.
Interpretation:
The church's only sources of income are fundraisers and charitable donations. It also doesn't possess any significant revenue streams. Because the church is attempting to conceal numerous possible pieces of information, this may be a case of micro-management by the proprietors, and so these issues should be considered by the officer in charge of the loan before accepting the loan.
Agatha was a licensed loan originator when the housing market slowdown left her with little work. She accepted a job outside the mortgage field over three years ago, and her license expired. Now, Agatha wants to apply for a license again. One of the requirements Agatha must meet in order to be re-licensed is:
Answer: Providing proof that she completed all of the continuing education requirements for the year she last held a license.
Explanation:
Based on the information given, since the license of Agatha has expired, one of the requirements that she must meet in order to be re-licensed is to provide proof that she completed all of the continuing education requirements for the year she last held a license.
It should be noted that providing proof that she still meets the qualifications to be a mortgage loan originator or information that relates to her previous license isn't required.
You wrote a piece of software that does a better job of allowing computers to network than any other program designed for this purpose. A large networking company wants to incorporate your software into its systems and is offering to pay you $458,000 today, plus $458,000 at the end of each of the following six years, for permission to do this. If the appropriate interest rate is 8 percent, what is the present value of the cash flow stream that the company is offering you?
Answer:
$2,575,278.87
Explanation:
Present Value = $458,000 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^1 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^2 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^3 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^4 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^5 + $458,000 /(1+.08)^6
Present Value = $458,000 + $424,074.07 + $392,661.18 + $363,575.16 + $336,643.67 + $311,707.10 + $288617.69
Present Value = $2,575,278.87
So, the present value of the cash flow stream that the company is offering to me is $2,575,278.87.

While under contract to play professional basketball for the Philadelphia 76ers, Billy Cunningham, an outstanding player, negotiated a three-year contract with the Carolina Cougars, another professional basketball team. The contract with the Cougars was to begin at the expiration of the contract with the 76ers. In addition to a signing bonus of $125,000, Cunningham was to receive under the new contract a salary of $100,000 for the first year, $110,000 for the second, and $120,000 for the third. The contract also stated that Cunningham "had special, exceptional and unique knowledge, skill and ability as a basketball player" and that Cunningham therefore agreed the Cougars could enjoin him from playing basketball for any other team for the term of the contract. In addition, the contract contained a clause prohibiting its assignment to another club without Cunningham’s consent. In 1971, the ownership of the Cougars changed, and Cunningham’s contract was assigned to Munchak Corporation, the new owners, without his consent. When Cunningham refused to play for the Cougars, Munchak Corporation sought to enjoin his playing for any other team. Cunningham asserts that his contract was not assignable. Was the contract assignable? Explain.
Answer:
Billy Cunningham and the Cougars
The contract was not assignable to another club.
But, the contract (assets and liabilities) can be inherited by a successor entity using the same club, the Cougars.
Explanation:
The contract was not assigned to another club, despite the change of ownership of the Cougars. Interestingly, the contract between Cunningham and Carolina Cougars was inheritable with the change of ownership of the Cougar Club from the formers owners, Carolina Cougars, to the new owners, Munchak Corporation. The clause prohibiting the contract's assignment to another club without Cunningham's consent was not violated.
A student borrows $90,000 for business school at 9.0% stated annual interest with equal monthly payments over 9 years. Consider this as a loan with no payments or interest during school so that the problem structure is equivalent to a standard loan received one period before the first payment. How much is the monthly payment
Answer:
the monthly payment is $1,218.86
Explanation:
The computation of the monthly payment is shown below;
Given that
RATE = 9% ÷ 12 = 0.75%
NPER = 9 × 12 = 108
PV = -$90,000
FV = $0
The formula is shown below;
=PMT(RATE,NPER,PV,FV,TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the monthly payment is $1,218.86
Because there isn't one single measure of inflation, the government and researchers use a variety of methods to get the most balanced picture of how prices fluctuate in the economy. Two of the most commonly used price indexes are the consumer price index (CPI) and the GDP deflator.
The CPI for this year is calculated by dividing thecost of a given market basket of goods and services using this year’s prices by thevalue of all goods and services produced in the economy this year using the base year’s prices and multiplying by 100. However, the GDP deflator reflects only the prices of all goods and services produced domestically. Indicate whether each scenario will affect the GDP deflator or the CPI for the United States. Check all that apply.
a. A decrease in the price of a Waterman Industries deep-water reel, which is a commercial fishing product used for deep-sea fishing
b. An increase in the price of a Japanese-made television that is popular among U.S. consumers
Answer:
GDP deflator
CPI
Explanation:
The consumer price index measures the changes in price of a basket of good. It is used to measure inflation. Basket of goods includes goods produced within the country and outside the country.
CPI = (cost of basket of goods in current period / cost of basket of goods in base period) x 100
An increase in the price of a Japanese-made television that is popular among U.S. consumers will increase CPI
GDP deflator = (nominal GDP / real GDP) x 100
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
Nominal GDP is GDP calculated using current year prices while Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
A decrease in the price of a Waterman Industries deep-water reel, which is a commercial fishing product used for deep-sea fishing will decrease GDP deflator
Prosecutors representing the Securities and Exchange Commission recentlyannounced criminal charges against 13 individuals for engaging in insidertrading. According to the SECs director of enforcement, a trading ring acting on inside information compromises the marketsintegrity and investorstrust. . . . Explain why.
Answer and Explanation:
Insider trading compromises the integrity of the market because insider investors have non-public information about the stocks of the company that could very much impact the value of the stock of the company. In other words, an insider knows what the public doesn't know about a company and it allows him an unfair advantage to trade the stocks of the company using this information and make large unusual profit. This could lead to market collapse as investors are no longer encouraged to invest seeing that they can't trust that the market is transparent and trustworthy(they don't have all the important information that would affect the company)

Explanation:
Feliciano Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours (DLHs). The company has two products, I63E and E76I, about which it has provided the following data: I63E E76I Direct materials per unit $ 21.70 $ 65.10 Direct labor per unit $ 19.50 $ 58.50 Direct labor-hours per unit 0.80 2.40 Annual production (units) 90,000 30,000
The company's estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is $2,063,250 and the company's estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 45,000.
The company is considering using a form of activity-based costing to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:
Activities and Activity Measures Estimated
Overhead Cost
Assembling products (DLHs) $ 720,000
Preparing batches (batches) 263,250
Product support (product variations) 1,080,000
Total $ 2,063,250
Expected Activity
I63E E76I Total
DLHs 24,000 21,000 45,000
Batches 1,080 675 1,755
Product variations 2,115 1,485 3,600
The manufacturing overhead that would be applied to a unit of product E76I under the activity-based costing system is closest to:________.
Answer:
Unitary cost= $30.91
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Assembling products= 720,000/45,000= $16 per DLH
Preparing batches= 263,250/1,755= $150 per batch
Product support= 1,080,000/3,600= $330 per product variation
Now, we allocate costs to Product E76l:
Assembling products= 16*21,000= $336,000
Preparing batches= 150*675= $101,250
Product support= 330*1,485= $490,050
Total= $927,300
Finally, the unitary cost:
Unitary cost= 927,300 / 30,000
Unitary cost= $30.91
