Answer: d) A unilateral contract
Explanation:
In a unilateral contract there is only one party to the contract that has to abide by the obligations specified and that is the offeror. The offeror offers to pay a certain amount of money if a certain thing is done. They will then pay the person that fulfills this service.
In this case, Darla is the offeror and she offers to pay anyone who can find her cat. When Noelle fulfills this service, Darla will then pay her what was promised. This is therefore a unilateral contract.
First National Bank charges 11.4 percent compounded monthly on its business loans. First United Bank charges 11.6 percent compounded semiannually. Calculate the EAR for each bank.
Answer:
EAR = (1 + APR/m)^m - 1. Where m = compounding periods
First National Bank
11.4 percent compounded monthly on its business loans
EAR = (1+11.4%/12)^12 - 1
EAR = (1.0095)^12 - 1
EAR = 1.12014921627 - 1
EAR = 0.12014921627
EAR = 12.014921627%
EAR = 12.01%
First United Bank
11.6 percent compounded semiannually
EAR = (1+11.6%/2)^2 - 1
EAR = (1.058)^2 - 1
EAR = 1.119364 - 1
EAR = 0.119364
EAR = 11.9364%
EAR = 11.94%

At December 31, 2020, Suffolk Corporation had an estimated warranty liability of $105,000 for accounting purposes and $0 for tax purposes. (The warranty costs are not deductible until paid.) The effective tax rate is 20%. Compute the amount Suffolk should report as a deferred tax asset at December 31, 2020.
Answer:
Deferred tax asset = $21000
Explanation:
Given the warranty liability = $105000
Effective tax rate = 20%
The deferred tax asset can be calculated by calculating the effective tax from the warranty liability. Therefore, just multiply the effective tax rate to the warranty liability.
Deferred tax asset = Effective tax rate x Warranty liability
Deferred tax asset = 20% x $105000
Deferred tax asset = $21000
The net profit margin ratio can mathematically be broken down as:______.

Suppose that the inflation rate is 2% and the real terminal value of an investment is expected to be $82,500 in 4 years. Calculate the nominal terminal value of the investment at the end of year 4.
Answer: $89300.65
Explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the nominal terminal value of the investment at the end of year 4 will be calculated thus:
Inflation rate = 2%
Real terminal value of investment = $82,500
Normal terminal value of investment will be:
= $82500 × (1+2%)⁴
= $82500 × (1 +0.02)⁴
= $82500 × 1.02⁴
= $89300.65
Refer to the following information about the Finishing Department in the Gallagher Factory for the month of June. Gallagher Factory uses the FIFO method of inventory costing.
Beginning Work in Process inventory:
Physical units..... 5000
% complete for materials 70%
% complete for conversion costs 25%
Materials cost from May 7350
Conversion costs from May 3125
Product started:
Physical units 44000
Ending Work in Process inventory:
Physical units 4000
% complete for materials 40%
% complete for conversion costs 10%
Manufacturing costs for June:
Materials 96975
Conversion costs 79470
Compute equivalent units for direct materials for June.
Answer:
the equivalent units for direct material is 43,100 units
Explanation:
The computation of the equivalent units for direct material is shown below:
= Ending work in process units + units started and completed + opening work in process units
= 40% of 4,000 units + (44,000 - 4,000) + 30% of 5,000
= 1,600 units + 40,000 units + 1,500 units
= 43,100 units
hence, the equivalent units for direct material is 43,100 units

Jerry Rice and Grain Stores has $4,320,000 in yearly sales. The firm earns 1.8 percent on each dollar of sales and turns over its assets 3.5 times per year. It has $139,000 in current liabilities and $372,000 in long-term liabilities.
a. What is its return on stockholders’ equity?
b. If the asset base remains the same as computed in part a, but total asset turnover goes up to 4.00, what will be the new return on stockholders’ equity? Assume that the profit margin stays the same as do current and long-term liabilities.
Answer:
a. Return on Stockholders’ Equity = 10.75%
b. New return on stockholders' equity = 12.29%
Explanation:
a. What is its return on stockholders’ equity?
This can be calculated as follows:
Net Income = Sales * Profit Margin = $4,320,000 * 1.8% = $77,760
Total Assets = Sales / Total Assets Turnover = $4,320,000 / 3.50 = $1,234,285.71
Total Liabilities = Current Liabilities + Long term liabilities = $139,000 + $372,000 = $511,000
Total Stockholders’ Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities = $1,234,285.71 - $511,000 = $723,285.71
As a result, we have:
Return on Stockholders’ Equity = (Net Income / Total Stockholders Equity) * 100 = ($77,760 / $723,285.71) * 100 = 10.75%
b. If the asset base remains the same as computed in part a, but total asset turnover goes up to 4.00, what will be the new return on stockholders’ equity? Assume that the profit margin stays the same as do current and long-term liabilities.
This can be calculated as follows:
New Sales = Total Assets * New Assets Turnover Ratio = $1,234,285.71 * 4 = $4,937,142.86
New Net Income = New sales * Profit Margin = $4,937,142.86 * 1.8% = $88,868.57
As a result, we have:
New return on stockholders' equity = (New Net Income / Total Stockholders Equity) * 100 = ($88,868.57 / $723,285.71) * 100 = 12.29%

= ($900,000 + $180,000)
= $1,080,000
Now price per share is
= $1.080.000 ÷ 25,000
= 43.2
so, new value of larry shares is
= 43.2 × 2000
= $86,400
b. Dilution and preemptive right
c The investment value should be
= 90,000 + 500 × 36

lannigan Company manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $450 per unit; variable costs are $270. Annual fixed costs are $800,000. Current sales volume is $4,200,000. Compute the current margin of safety in dollars for Flannigan Company
Answer:
$2,200,000
Explanation:
Margin of safety means by how much sales can fall before a firm starts making a loss.
Margin of safety = Current Sales - Break even sales
where,
Break even sales = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
= $800,000 ÷ 0.40
= $2,000,000
therefore,
Margin of safety = $4,200,000 - $2,000,000
= $2,200,000

One year ago, you purchased $6,000 worth of a mutual fund at an offering price of $38.10 a share. Today, the fund distributed $0.20 in short-term gains and $1.04 in long-term gains. The current offering price is $41.80. The fund has a front-end load of 5 percent and total annual operating expenses of 1.25 percent. What is your rate of return on this investment?
a. 7.48 percent
b. 9.91 percent
c. 2.87 percent
d. 3.54 percent
e. 6.06 percent
Answer:
a. 7.48%
Explanation:
Number of shares = $ 6,000 / $ 38.10
Number of shares = 157.48
Rate of return = [Number of shares * (Short term gans + Long term gains + ((1 - Front end load) * (Current offering price)) - Purchase price] / Purchase price
Rate of return = [157.48 * ($0.20 + $1.04 + ((1 - 0.05 ) * $41.80)) - $6,000] / $6,000
Rate of return = [157.48 * ($0.20 + $1.04 + (0.95 * $41.80)) - $6,000] / $6,000
Rate of return = [157.48 * ($1.24 + $39.71) - $6,000] / $6,000
Rate of return = $448.806 / $6,000
Rate of return = 0.074801
Rate of return = 7.48%
