Consider the relative liquidity of the following assets:
Assets
1. The funds in a money market account
2. A $5 bill
3. A share in a publicly traded company
4. Your house
Select the assets in order of their liquidity, from most liquid to least liquid.
Most Liquid
Second-Most Liquid
Third-Most Liquid
Least Liquid

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Liquidity of an asset refers to how easily convertible the asset is to cash or so called liquid money.

Most Liquid - A $5 bill

This is already cash so it is the most liquid there is.

Second-Most Liquid  - The funds in a money market account

Funds in a money market account are the second most liquid because most often they can simply be withdrawn from the fund. There might be limits on the number of withdrawals allowed though within a period.

Third-Most Liquid  -  A share in a publicly traded company

A share in a publicly trade company ranks here because to realize the cash, one would need to sell the share first.

Least Liquid - Your house

Your house will be the most difficult of these to liquidate as it will involve a much longer process to eventually get it sold and realize cash. The process will include but will not be limited to, advertising, hiring realtors, inspection etc.

With regard to consideration in a sales contract, the UCC differs from the common law in that:_______
A) terms of a sales contract may be modified without additional consideration.
B) consideration is not required in sales contracts
C) terms in a sales contract may be modified as long as additional consideration is provided.
D) consideration exchanged must be equal or very closely equal in sales contracts.

Answers

Answer:

A) terms of a sales contract may be modified without additional consideration.

Explanation:

Generally speaking, common law applies to everybody in an equal manner, i.e. the law is the same for everyone. While UCC rules vary depending if the parties involved are merchants or not. UCC has two standards, one that applies to merchants and another one that applies to everyone else.

Common law applies to all contracts that are not covered by UCC rules. UCC rules only apply to the sale of goods and this doesn't include money or securities. Under UCC rules, new consideration is not a requirement to modify an existing contract. E.g. a buyer places an order for 3,000 units, but the seller only has 2,000 units available. The seller can send the 2,000 units and if the buyer accepts them, a new contract is formed.

consider a bond that matures in 10 years it pay9% annual coupons and $100 at maturity is the required annual rate of return on the bond i s 8% then the bond will sell today for

Answers

Answer:

Bond Price today = $106.71008 rounded off to $106.71

Explanation:

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and r or YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 0.09 * 100 = $9

Total periods (n)= 10

r or YTM = 8% or 0.08

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

Bond Price = 9 * [( 1 - (1+0.08)^-10) / 0.08]  +  100 / (1+0.08)^10

Bond Price = $106.71008 rounded off to $106.71

Explain why the change in accounts payable and in accrued and other liabilities is added to net income to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities.

Answers

Answer:

P&G 2017 K-10:

a) Alternative formats for P&G Balance Sheet:

1. Report Format: Assets and Liabilities and Equity are listed from up to down.

2. Account Format: Assets and Liabilities and Equity are stated side by side.

3. Liquidity Format: The most liquid assets are listed first and then followed by permanent assets, and the same for liabilities.

4. Permanency Format: Noncurrent assets are stated first before current assets, and the same for liabilities.

P&G reported under US GAAP adopted the Report Format and listed balance sheet items according to their liquidity.

b) Techniques of disclosure of additional financial information:

1. Parenthetical Explanation

2. Notes to the Financial Statements

3. Cross-referencing

4. Valuation Allowances, e.g allowances for doubtful accounts, accumulated depreciation, etc.

5. Supporting Schedules

6. Comparative Statements, with about three years of financial statements.

c) P&G used Notes to the Financial Statements with supporting schedules and comparative statements.

2. Investing Activities = ($5,689 million)

3. Financing Activities = ($8,568 million)

e. Trends in net cash provided by operating activities over the period 2015 to 2017:

Net cash provided by operating activities:

2015 = $14,608 million

2016 = $15,435 million

2017 = $12,753 million

It increased from 2015 to 2016 and decreased in 2017 as stated above.

f) The change in accounts payable, accrued, and other liabilities is added to net income to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities because they involve cash outflows for the payment of purchases for goods and services used in generating the revenue that produces the net income.

Explanation:

P&G as a US headquartered entity reported under US GAAP with the adoption of Balance Sheet instead of reporting under IFRS with the adoption of Statement of Financial Position. P&G called its Income Statement "Consolidated Statement of Earnings" instead of the IFRS "Consolidated Income Statement."  Apart from nomenclature, the formats and disclosures are similar.

Steel Tariffs Appear to Have Backfired on Bush
President Bush set aside his​ free-trade principles last year and imposed heavy tariffs on imported steel to help out struggling mills in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Some economists say the tariffs may have cost more jobs than they​ saved, by driving up costs for automakers and other steel users.
Source: The Washington Post, September 19, 2003
Explain how a high tariff on steel imports can help domestic steel producers.
Explain how a high tariff on steel imports can harm steel users.
When a high tariff is placed on steel imports, U.S. steel producers produce______steel and they pay a ________price.
A. less; higher
B. more; lower
C. less; lower
D. more; higher

Answers

Answer:

Steel industry in the United States of America has had its up and down over the years. this is especially going by the fact that it is cheaper to import steel from outside America than to buy those produced in U.S. However, high tariff on steel import would enable the domestic steel producers to meet their obligation as well as recoup their investments in the steel industry in U.S.

For example, most construction based organisation would prefer to buy from domestic steel producer if the price and tariff of imported ones makes it extremely difficult to purchase.

On the other-hand, the high tariff placed on steel import could also harm steel users due to the fact that, the quality of steel which they buy from outside U.S would no longer be available to them.

Also, they would be forced to buy at whatever price from domestic producers whether they had need for the steel or not due to high tariff on imported ones.

When a high tariff is placed on steel imports, U.S. steel producers produce more steel and they pay a higher price.

Answer: D. more; higher

Explanation:

You are considering purchasing stock in Canyon Echo. You feel the company will increase its dividend at 4.4 percent indefinitely. The company just paid a dividend of $3.29 and you feel that the required return on the stock is 10.6 percent. What is the price per share of the company's stock?

Answers

Answer: $50.83

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the following can be deduced:

r = required return = 10.6% = 0.106

D0 = Dividend = 3.29

g = growth rate = 4.4% = 0.044

The price per share of the company's stock will be:

= D0(1 + g)/(r - g)

= 3.29(1 + 0.044)/(0.106 - 0.044)

= 3.29(1.044)/(0.062)

= 3.15134/0.062

= $50.83

A firm has a total market value of $10 million while its debt has a market value of $4 million. What is the after-tax weighted average cost of capital if the before-tax cost of debt is 10%, the cost of equity is 15%, and the tax rate is 35%

Answers

Answer:

11.6%

Explanation:

A firm total market value is $10 million

Its debt has a market value of $4 million

The before-tax cost of debt is 10%

= 10/100

= 0.1

The cost of equity is 15%

= 15/100

= 0.15

The tax rate is 35%

= 35/100

= 0.35

Therefore, the after-tax weighted average cost of capital can be calculated as follows

WACC= 0.4(0.10)(1-0.35) + 0.6(0.15)

= 0.04(0.65) + 0.09

= 0.026 + 0.09

= 0.116×100

= 11.6%

Hence the after-tax weighted average cost of capital is 11.6%

Janitor Supply produces an industrial cleaning powder that requires 48 grams of material at $0.10 per gram and 0.15 direct labor hours at $11.00 per hour. Overhead is applied at the rate of $10 per direct labor hour. What is the total standard cost for one unit of product that would appear on a standard cost card

Answers

Answer:

Unitary cost= $7.95

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

48 grams of material at $0.10 per gram

0.15 direct labor hours at $11.00 per hour

Overhead is applied at the rate of $10 per direct labor hour.

We need to calculate the unitary production cost:

Unitary cost= 48*0.1 + 0.15*11 + 0.15*10

Unitary cost= $7.95

A seller did not submit testing information required in the contract to the buyer, and the project manager did not notice it was not received. After four weeks, the company head asked for the testing information and found out it was not received. The project manager then asked the seller to send the information. The seller argued, "You did not receive the testing reports for four weeks, and you did not say anything. You have therefore waived your rights to ever get them". The seller refused to give the reports without a change to the contract and additional payment. The issue went to court of law to resolve. What do you think was the court's decision? Post what you believe the decision was in this forum post. After posting, review and comment on at least one of your colleagues post. Be sure that you answer any questions that someone else might have made on your post. NOTE: You will not be able to see any other responses until you post your own.

Answers

Answer:

Since the testing information is a requirement of the contract, the buyer has the right to request for it accordingly and the seller should not refuse unless fraud is implied.  The contract does not specify when a waiver of the right to the testing information should become effective.

The court of law should decide in favor of the buyer's right to receive the testing information from the seller.

Explanation:

Contract terms are agreements and promises that must be followed because they are made for consideration to be given and received.  If a contract for the sale of goods includes the submission of some information, this later requirement forms part of the contract and exchange of promises for consideration, and they must be respected and fulfilled, unless there is additional agreement specifying some deadline within which the right to such testing information is waived.

24. Emotional labor is higher in jobs requiring: 1 point A. limited hours of routine work. B. working in irregular shifts. C. working in isolation. D. frequent interaction with clients. E. skilled knowledge such as accounting.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:

frequent interaction with clients. (D.)

Explanation:

Emotional labour refers to the suppression or the management of one's emotions that are felt but not expressed while at a job. Essentially, emotional labour requires workers to:

Hide emotions they do feel

show emotions they do not feel

create an appropriate emotion for the situation.

These can be achieved through surface acting and deep acting.

Customer service and retail jobs require a lot of emotional labour. For instance, if the customer service agent is angry, it is not ethical in his/her job description to show such anger to the clients, hence he/she has to force a smile just to give a satisfactory service to the client. some determinants of emotional labour include:

1. societal, organizational or occupational norms

2. emotional expressiveness

3. supervisory regulation of display rules

On March 15, 20X7, Barrel Company paid property taxes of $120,000 on its factory building for calendar year 20X7. On July 1, 20X7, Barrel made $20,000 in unanticipated repairs to its machinery. The repairs will benefit operations for the remainder of the calendar year. What total amount of these expenses should be included in Barrel's quarterly income statement for the three months ended September 30, 20X7?

Answers

Answer:

Total expenses = $40,000

Explanation:

Total expenses for the quarterly income statement for the three months can be calculated as follows

Data

Property taxes paid = $120,000

Unanticipated repairs = $20,000

Expenses for quarterly income statement =?

Solution

Total expenses = Property taxes paid + Unanticipated repairs

Total expenses = ($120,000 x 3/12) + ($20,000 x 3/6)

Total expenses = $30,000 + $10,000

Total expenses = $40,000

Total expenses of $40,000 should be included in Barrel's quarterly income statement for the three months ended September 30, 20X7

Additional workers will increase a company's to a certain point until gains frombegin to decline. At this point, will continue to increase, but ___________ will diminish with each additional worker. Eventually there will be too many workers and not enoughto keep them busy inevitably slowing down production.

Answers

Answer:

Marginal product

Explanation:

There would be an increase in the marginal product of labour. more workers would result in more specialization in skilled areas. As workers increase, it is expected that work done would rise also.

Such that a time would come when the workers would be enough and no more gains would be accrued from specialization. We refer to this as the point of diminishing marginal product. capital would be fixed such that as more workers are used capital declines for each worker.

What is the amount that Cooper Enterprises should report as its pension liability on its balance sheet as of December 31, 2018?

Answers

Answer: $600,000

Explanation;

Pension Liability refers to the amount the company is to pay its employees a pension less the actual amount it has to pay its employees.

It is therefore expressed as;

The firm has a target debt-equity (D/E) ratio of 0.76. Its cost of equity is 15.3 percent, and its pretax cost of debt is 9 percent. What is the WACC given a tax rate of 21 percent

Answers

Answer:

11.76%

Explanation:

The computation of the Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is shown below:

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)+ (Weightage of  common stock) × (cost of common stock)

= (0.76 ÷ 1.76 × 9%) × ( 1 - 21%) +  (1 ÷ 1.76 × 15.3%)

= 3.07% + 8.69%

= 11.76%

Hence, the WACC is 11.76%

We simply multiplied the weight of capital stucture with its cost

Answer: Add social value and entertainment to consumers' lives

Explanation:

In this age of technology, companies have found that being able to offer their customers relevant products can be greatly helped by gathering information about them and offering it to them directly on their phones. A great way to do so is through the use of mobile apps.

With mobile apps a company can track behavior on the device as well as track mobile activity. They could even use the GPS capabilities of the phone through the app to offer relevant location based content.

However, as much as companies would like their customers to have enjoyable lives, this is not an aim with mobile apps. The apps are there to boost the companies sales not to add social value and entertainment to consumers' lives unless of course, that is the company's main business.

Barry Cuda is considering the purchase of the following Builtrite bond: $1000 par, 3 1/4% coupon rate, 10 year maturity that is currently selling for $940. If Barry purchases this bond, what would his approximate yield to maturity be?

Answers

Answer:

Yield to Maturity = 3.97%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity is the discount rate that equates the price of the bond to the present value of its future cash flow receivable from it.

The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below:  

YM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)  

YM-Yield to maturity-  

C- annual coupon  

F- Face Value  

P- Current Price  

DATA  

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 3 1/4%=  32.5

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C- 32.5, Face Value - 1,000, P-940  

YM = (32.5+ (1000-940)/10) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 940) )  

YM = 0.0397 × 100 =  3.97%

Yield to Maturity = 3.97%

Answer:

Please refer to the attached.

Before Jane Brown wrote the check, her account was $55 at First National Bank which is reflected by the checkable deposit of $55 which the bank will keep in reserve as an asset.

Joe Green has not received the money so his account at Second National will show $0 balances.

After the cheque has been written and deposited, Jane Brown's chekcable deposits at First national will become $0 as well as the reserves.

Joe Green on the other hand, having gained the $55 and deposited it will see his checkable deposits rise to $55 which the bank will keep in reserve as an asset.

The per-unit standards for direct materials are 2 gallons at $4 per gallon. Last month, 11200 gallons of direct materials that actually cost $42400 were used to produce 6000 units of product. The direct materials quantity variance for last month was

Answers

Answer:

$3,200 Favorable

Explanation:

For the computation of direct materials quantity variance first we need to find out the standard quantity which is shown below:-

Standard quantity = Standard quantity per unit × Number of units produced

= 2 gallon × 6,000

= 12,000

Direct materials quantity variance = (Standard quantity - Actual quantity) × Standard Price

= (12,000 - 11,200) × $4

= 800 × $4

= $3,200 Favorable

Based on the following information, calculate the variable overhead rate variance. Actual variable overhead cost $15,500 Actual hours used 4,200 Standard hours allowed 4,000 Standard variable overhead rate $3.75 per hour

Answers

Answer:

Rate variance = $250 favorable

Explanation:

The variable overhead rate variance is the difference between the actual variable cost and the standard variable overhead  cost the actual actual hours used.

We would compare the actual cost to the standard cost of the actual hours used . This is done below as follows:

                                                                                               $

4,200 hours should have cost (4200 × 3.75 )               15,750

but did cost                                                                       15,500

Rate variance                                                                      250  Favorable

Note the actual hours of 4,200 cost $250 less than it should be have cost . Hence the variance is favorable

Rate variance = $250

Colgate-Palmolive Company reports the following balances in its retained earnings.
($ millions) 2010 2009
Retained earnings $14,329 $13,157
During 2010, Colgate-Palmolive reported net income of $2,200 million.
a. Assume that the only changes affecting retained earnings were net income and dividends. What amount of dividends did Colgate-Palmolive pay to its shareholders in 2010?
b. This dividend amount constituted what percent of its net income? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Answers

Answer:

a. $1,028 million

b. 46.7%

Explanation:

a. Dividends are taken from the retained earnings and net income is added to the retained earnings. The formula for ending retained earnings is;

Ending retained earnings = Opening Retained earnings + Net Income - Dividends

14,329 = 13,157 + 2,200 - Dividends

Dividends = 13,157 + 2,200 - 14,329

Dividends = $1,028 million

b. Dividends as a percentage of income

= 1,028/2,200

= 0.467

= 46.7%

You own of the stock of a company that has 10 directors on its board. How much representation can you get on the board if the company has cumulative​ voting? How much representation can you ensure if the company has straight​ voting?

Answers

Answer:

B.With cumulative voting you are able to get proportional representation by putting all of your votes toward 3​directors, allowing you to elect representatives to 3 seats ​(30% of ten​ seats) on the board. B.With​ non-cumulative voting you vote on each director​ individually, and without a majority of the shares you cannot ensure that your representative will win any of the elections​ (you could lose 70% to 30% in each of the ten individual​ elections).

Explanation:

Cumulative voting is a method of voting that allows a shareholder to place all the votes they have to one or more person. Normally, during elections for a Board member, each shareholder will be given a certain number of votes and this is usually related to the number of shares they hold. In cumulative voting, they can place all these allowed votes in the corner of one person thereby increasing their chances of getting voted. By owning 30%, you will get 30% of the votes. If you decide to place all 30% for 3 people out of 10, you will get them elected.

With straight voting though, you can only vote once per share owned. That means that you cannot pledge all your votes to a single person or group of people. Should that happen, you cannot ensure that your representative will win as people may outvote your 30% in in each candidate.

The 7 percent bonds issued by Modern Kitchens pay interest semiannually, mature in eight years, and have a $1,000 face value. Currently, the bonds sell for $987. What is the yield to maturity? B) 6.92 percent D) 7.22 percent A) 6.97 percent C) 6.88 percent E) 7.43 percent

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D. 7.22 percent

Explanation:

Interest payments are being made semiannually, this means it is being paid twice in a year

N(Number of periods) = 16 periods ( 8 years x 2)

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?

PV(present value or market price) = $987

PMT( coupon payment) = $35 ( [7 percent÷ 2] x $1,000)

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 16; PV = -987 ; PMT = 35; FV= $1,000; CPT I/Y= 3.61

3.61 percent is the Yield-to-maturity for semiannual

Therefore, the Yield-to-maturity of the bond annually is 7.22 percent (3.61 percent x 2)

On July 31, the company’s Cash account has a $25,274 debit balance, but its July bank statement shows a $26,612 cash balance. 1. Prepare the bank reconciliation for this company as of July 31.

Answers

Answer:

A lot of information was missing, so I looked for a similar question but couldn't find one with the same exact numbers, but I believe the following question should be very similar and you can use it as an example:

a.On July 31, the company’s Cash account has a $24,756 debit balance, but its July bank statement shows a $26,449 cash balance.

b.Check No. 3031 for $1,270 and Check No. 3040 for $627 were outstanding on the June 30 bank reconciliation. Check No. 3040 is listed with the July canceled checks, but Check No. 3031 is not. Also, Check No. 3065 for $411 and Check No. 3069 for $2,038, both written in July, are not among the canceled checks on the July 31 statement.

c.In comparing the canceled checks on the bank statement with the entries in the accounting records, it is found that Check No. 3056 for July rent was correctly written and drawn for $1,240 but was erroneously entered in the accounting records as $1,230.

d.A credit memorandum enclosed with the July bank statement indicates the bank collected $9,000 cash on a non-interest-bearing note for Branch, deducted a $45 collection fee, and credited the remainder to its account. Branch had not recorded this event before receiving the statement.

e. A debit memorandum for $805 lists a $795 NSF check plus a $10 NSF charge. The check had been received from a customer, Evan Shaw. Branch has not yet recorded this check as NSF.

f.Enclosed with the July statement is a $14 debit memorandum for bank services. It has not yet been recorded because no previous notification had been received.

g.Branch’s July 31 daily cash receipts of $10,152 were placed in the bank’s night depository on that date but do not appear on the July 31 bank statement.
