Answer:
8.00%
Explanation:
The price of a zero-coupon bond is the present value of its face value since no coupon payments exist, hence, we can determine the semiannual rate of return using the formula below:
PV=FV/(1+r)^n
PV= $675.68
FV=$1000
r=semiannual rate of return=unknown
n=number of semiannual periods in 5 years=5*2=10
$675.68=$1000/(1+r)^10
$675.68*(1+r)^10=$1000
(1+r)^10=$1000/$675.68
$1000/$675.68 can be rewritten as ($1000/$675.68)^1
(1+r)^10=($1000/$675.68)^1
divide indexes on both sides by 2
1+r=($1000/$675.68)^(1/10)
r=($1000/$675.68)^(1/10)-1
r=4.00%(semiannual rate of return)
the annual rate of return(compounded semiannually)=4.00%*2=8.00%

Natasha and Link have been married for 2 years. They live in North Carolina and are about to make an offer on their first home. Their goal is to own the property so that if either Natasha or Link were to die, the surviving spouse would own the property outright. They also want to keep things private and avoid probate. How should they title their new home?
A. Link should own the house fee simple and name Natasha as his beneficiary.
B. Tenancy in common is the best way to title the property because it meets all their objectives.
C. They should title the home as JTWROS as a way to accomplish their goals.
D. Because they live in North Carolina, they should title the home as community property.
Answer:
Natasha and LInk
Based on the spouses goal to own the property so that if either Natasha or LInk were to die, the surviving spouse would own the property outright, keeping things private and avoid probate, they should title their new home as:
C. They should title the home as JTWROS as a way to accomplish their goals.
Explanation:
The arrangement that meets their goals is Joint tenancy with rights of survivorship (JTWROS) which affords survivorship rights to either Natasha or Link in the event of the death of either spouse. In other words, JTWROS allows either Natasha or Link to automatically own the property without publicity or probate. This arrangement will meet all their arrangements, unlike tenancy in common. Moreover, there is no community property provision in North Carolina where they live. Lastly, naming Natasha presupposes that Link would die first. This does not meet their expectations.

B) Robert wins; the UCC will decide which 40 acres are to be sold.
C) Wally wins; the original offer was not intended to be an offer but merely an invitation to negotiate.
D) Wally wins; this agreement is too indefinite since it does not identify which 40 acres are to be sold.

Identify the correct statement. Select one: a. Debt increases when the budget deficit decreases. b. A budget deficit is a stock variable, while debt is a flow variable. c. A budget deficit is a flow variable, while debt is a stock variable. d. A budget deficit and debt are both stock variables. e. The budget deficit decreases when aggregate demand decreases.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
A flow variable is a variable that is measured over a period in time
A stock variable is a variable that is measured at a point in time.
Budget deficit occurs when government spending exceeds income of the government.
Debt is the total amount owed by an entity
Budget deficit is a flow variable because it increases as debt increases Debt is measured at a point in time. It is a stock variable
When budget deficit increases, debt increases. This is because a deficit would need to be funded by additional borrowing

Refer to the information above. Assume that in its financial statements, Tilton Products uses the 150%-declining-balance method and the half-year convention. Depreciation expense in 2009 and 2010 will be: Group of answer choices
Answer:
Depreciation expense in 2009 = $8,250
Depreciation expense in 2010 = $14,953.13
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
On April 30, 2009, Tilton Products purchased machinery for $88,000. The useful life of this machinery is estimated at 8 years, with an $8,000 residual value.
Refer to the above data. Assume that in its financial statements, Tilton Products uses the 150%-declining-balance method and the half-year convention. Depreciation expense in 2009 and 2010 will be:
The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:
Depreciation rate = 150% / Estimated useful life = 150% / 8 = 0.1875
Since the half-year convention is assumed, it implies that only half of the first year which is 2009 depreciation will be claimed while the full depreciation will be claimed for the rest of the year. Therefore, we have:
Depreciation expense in 2009 = (Cost of the machinery * Depreciation rate) / 2 = ($88,000 * 0.1875) / 2 = $8,250
Book value at the beginning of 2010 fiscal year = Cost of the machinery - Depreciation expense in 2009 = $88,000 - $8,250 = $79,750
Depreciation expense in 2010 = Book value at the beginning of 2010 fiscal year * Depreciation rate = $79,750 * 0.1875 = $14,953.13
Mid-Town Copy Service processes 2,100,000 photocopies per month at its mid-town service center. Approximately 50 percent of the photocopies require collating. Collating is currently performed by high school and college students who are paid $8 per hour. Each student collates an average of 5,000 copies per hour. Management is contemplating the lease of an automatic collating machine that has a monthly capacity of 6,000,000 photocopies, with lease and operating costs totaling $1,550, plus $0.05 per 1,000 units collated.(a) Determine the total costs of collating 500,000 and 1,500,000 per month:1. With student help.2. With the collating machine.(b) Determine the monthly volume at which the automatic process becomes preferable to the manual process.
Answer:
Mid-Town Copy Service
a. The total costs of collating 500,000 and 1,500,000 per month are:
500,000 1,500,000
1. With student help $800 $2,400
2. With the collating machine $1,575 $1,625
b. The monthly volume at which automatic process becomes preferable to the manual process is:
= 1,050,000 photocopies.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Monthly photocopies processed per month = 2,100,000
Photocopies requiring collation = 1,050,000 (50% * 2,100,000)
Cost of collating per hour = $8
Average number of copies collated by a student per hour = 5,000
Total cost of manual collating copies = $8 * 1,050,000/5,000 = $1,680
Lease cost of automatic collating machine = $1,550 + $0.05 per 1,000 units collated
The total costs of collating 500,000 and 1,500,000 per month:
500,000 1,500,000
1. With student help $800 $2,400
($8 * 500,000/5,000) ($8 * 1,500,000/5,000)
2. With the collating machine $1,575 $1,625
($1,550 + $0.05* 500,000/1,000) ($1,550 + $0.05* 1,500,000/1,000)
b. The monthly volume at which automatic process becomes preferable to the manual process is 1,050,000.
At this volume, costs are:
Manual Process = $1,680 ($8 * 1,050,000/5,000)
Automatic Process = $1,603 ($1,550 + $0.05* 1,050,000/1,000)

(For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.)
How many annual payments of $2,900 will Kevin receive?
In a bid to determine the number of annual payments of $2,900 that Kevin would receive, we can make use of a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its default end mode before making the below inputs and that the amount invested today is the present value of annual payments
PMT=2900(amount of each annual payment)
I/Y=12(the rate of interest to be earned annually without the "%" sign)
PV=-15451.93 (amount invested, it is negative since it is an outflow)
FV=0(after all annual payments have been received, number of outstanding annual payments would be nil)

The San Pedro Company forecasts that total overhead for the current year will be $10,000,000 and that total machine hours will be 200,000 hours. Year to date, the actual overhead is $8,000,000 and the actual machine hours are 100,000 hours. If the company uses a predetermined overhead rate based on machine hours for applying overhead, what is that overhead rate
Answer:
the overhead rate is $50 per machine hour
Explanation:
The computation of the overhead rate is shown below:
Predetermined overhead rate
= Estimated total Overhead ÷ Estimated total machine hour
= $10,000,000 ÷ 200,000 hours
= $50 per machine hour
hence, the overhead rate is $50 per machine hour

During 2004, Thor Lab supplied hospitals with a comprehensive diagnostic kit for $120. At a volume of 80,000 kits, Thor had fixed costs of $1,000,000 and a profit before income taxes of $200,000. Due to an adverse legal decision, Thor’s 2005 liability insurance increased by $1,200,000 over 2004. Assuming the volume and other costs are unchanged, what should the 2005 price be if Thor is to make the same $200,000 profit before income taxes?
a. $120.00
b. $135.00
c. $150.00
d. $240.00
Answer:
d. $240.00
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what should the 2005 price be if Thor is to make the same $200,000 profit before income taxes?
2004 CM% = 12.5% ($15/$120)
2005 CM = $2,400,000 ($1,000,000 + $200,000)
2005 CM per unit = $2,400,000/80,000 units
2005 CM per unit= $30 CM per unit;
2005 selling price per unit = $30/.125
2005 selling price per unit= $240
Therefore what should the 2005 price be if Thor is to make the same $200,000 profit before income taxes is $240

Sally has invested $10,000 now and wants to earn a real interest rate of 10% per year. Assume that the inflation rate is 7% per year. Determine the future worth Sally has to receive 10 years from now? a) $62, 338 b) Unknown c) $42, 338 d) $52, 338
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Inflation rate= 7%
Real rate of return= 10%
Present value (PV)= $10,000
Number of periods (n)= 10 years
The real rate of return incorporates the effect of the inflation rate. Therefore, the nominal rate of return:
Nominal rate of return= 0.1 + 0.07= 17%
To calculate the Future Value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1 + i)^n
FV= 10,000*(1.17^10)
FV= $48,068.28
This is the nominal value received after ten years.
If Sally wants to determine the real value of the investment after 10 years, we must use the real rate of return:
FV= 10,000*(1.1^10)
FV=$25,937.42

Answer: $800
Explanation:
If the reserve requirement is 10%, then the maximum amount that Fictional First can loan out and still meet the reserve requirement will be:
Deposits = $22000
Then, the required reserve will be
= 10% × $22000
= 0.1 × $22000
= $2200
Since, the reserves is $3000, then the additional amount that's held as reserves will be:
= $3000 - $2200
= $800.
Therefore, the maximum amount that Fictional First can loan out and still meet the reserve requirement is $800.
The maximum amount that Fictional First can loan out is $800 and still meet the reserve requirement.
How to calculate the maximum loan amount?The reserve requirement is given as 10% and deposits $22000, the amount required to set aside as reserves would be;
[tex]0.1*22000\\=2200[/tex]
Now, with Assets Liabilities Reserves as $3000, the more amount that should be reserved would be;

Cullumber Corporation has announced that its net income for the year ended June 30, 2017, was $1,353,412. The company had EBITDA of $4,948,000, and its depreciation and amortization expense was equal to $1,128,000. The company's average tax rate is 34 percent. What was its interest expense
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Net income = $1,353,412
Tax rate is 34% hence the company's EBT amount is calculated as
EBT = $1,353,412 / 0.66 = $2,050,624.24
Add back Depreciation and amortization to the EBT
= $2,050,624.24 + $1,128,000
= $3,178,624.24
The difference between the above and EBITDA amount will be the interest expense for the year
= $4,948,000 - $3,178,624.24
= $1,769,375.76
Therefore, the interest expense is $1,769,375.76

A company pays its employees $2,900 each Friday, which amounts to $580 per day for the five-day workweek that begins on Monday. If the monthly accounting period ends on Thursday and the employees worked through Thursday, the amount of salaries earned but unpaid at the end of the accounting period is:
Answer:
$2,320
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what amount of salaries earned but unpaid at the end of the accounting period is:
Ending salaries earned but unpaid=$2,900-$580
Ending salaries earned but unpaid=$2,320
($2,900-580)
Therefore the amount of salaries earned but unpaid at the end of the accounting period is: $2,320
You are given the following information. Durable good consumption 462 Residential investment 526 Imports 987 Government expenditure 1259 Receipts of factor income from abroad 45 Personal income 7863 Nonresidential investment 66 Nondurable goods 893 Exports 1056 Services 7638 Depreciation 125 Change in inventories 26 Payments of factor income abroad 59 Personal taxes 2538 Do we have a trade deficit or trade surplus
Answer: Trade surplus of $69
Explanation:
A trade deficit is when the imports into a country are greater than exports leaving the country and a trade surplus is the reverse.
Exports for this country are $1,056
Imports to this country are $987
Exports are greater than imports so there is no trade deficit. Instead there is a Trade surplus of:
= Exports - Imports
= 1,056 - 987
= $69
On July 1, 2020, Sarasota Company purchased for $5,760,000 snow-making equipment having an estimated useful life of 5 years with an estimated salvage value of $240,000.

Depreciation Expense for the Year
Assume the company had used straight-line depreciation during 2014 and 2015. During 2016, the company determined that the equipment would be useful to the company for only one more year beyond 2016. Salvage value is estimated at $160,000.
Compute the amount of depreciation expense for the 2016 income statement.
Answer:
1. We have:
Depreciation expense for 2014 = $920,000
Depreciation expense for 2015 = $1,472,000
2. We have:
Depreciation expense for 2014 = $1,152,000
Depreciation expense for 2015 = $1,843,200
3. Depreciation expense for 2016 = $1,972,000
Explanation:
1. Sum-of-the-years'-digits method.
Depreciable amount = Equipment cost – Salvage value = $5,760,000 - $240,000 = $5,520,000
Sum of the year digits = 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 15
Depreciation expense for a year = Depreciable amount * (Remaining years / Sum of the year digits) ………. (1)
Using equation (1), we have:
Depreciation expense for 2014 = $5,520,000 * (5 / 15) * (6 / 12) = $920,000
Depreciation expense for 2015 = $5,520,000 * (4 / 15) = $1,472,000
Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2015 = $920,000 + $1,472,000 = $2,392,000
Therefore, we have:
Sum-of-the-Years'-Digits Method 2014 2015
Equipment $5,760,000 $5,760,000
Less: Accumulated Depreciation (920,000) (2,392,000)
Year-End Book Value 4,600,000 3,128,000
Depreciation Expense for the Year 920,000 1,472,000
2. Double-declining balance method.
Depreciable amount = Equipment cost – Salvage value = $5,760,000 - $240,000 = $5,520,000
Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = (1 / Number of estimated useful life) * 2 = (1 / 5) * 2 = 0.40, or 40%
Depreciation expense for 2014 = Equipment cost * Double-declining depreciation rate = $5,760,000 * 40% * (6 / 12) = $1,152,000
Depreciation expense for 2015 = (Equipment cost - 2014 Depreciation expense) * Double-declining depreciation rate = ($5,760,000 - $1,152,000) * 40% = $1,843,200
Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2015 = $1,152,000 + $1,843,200= $2,995,200
Note that under Double-declining balance method, the salvage value is not considered until the last year of the asset.
Therefore, we have:
Double-Declining Balance Method 2014 2015
Equipment $5,760,000 $5,760,000
Less: Accumulated Depreciation (1,152,000) (2,995,200)
Year-End Book Value 3,456,000 2,073,600
Depreciation Expense for the Year 1,152,000 1,843,200
3. Compute the amount of depreciation expense for the 2016 income statement.
Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of estimated useful life = 1 / 5 = 0.20, or 20%
Depreciable amount = Equipment cost – Salvage value = $5,760,000 - $240,000 = $5,520,000
Depreciation expense for 2014 = Depreciable amount * Straight line depreciation rate * (6 / 12) = $5,520,000 * 20% * (6 / 12) = $552,000
Depreciation expense for 2015 = Depreciable amount * Straight line depreciation rate = $5,520,000 * 20% = $1,104,000
Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2015 = $552,000 + $1,104,000 = $1,656,000
Net book value at end of 2015 = Equipment cost - Accumulated depreciation at the end of 2015 = $5,760,000 - $1,656,000 = $4,104,000
Depreciation expense for 2016 = (Net book value at end of 2015 - New Salvage value) / Remaining useful years = ($4,104,000 - $160,000) / 2 = $1,972,000

Commercial Services.com Corporation provides business-to-business services on the Internet. Data concerning the most recent year appear below:
Sales $3,000,000
Net operating income $150,000
Average operating assets $750,000
Required:
Consider each question below independently. Carry out all computations to two decimal places.
1. Compute the company’s return on investment (ROI).
2. The entrepreneur who founded the company is convinced that sales will increase next year by 50% and that net operating income will increase by 200%, with no increase in average operating assets. What would be the company's ROI?
3. The chief financial officer of the company believes a more realistic scenario would be a $1,000,000 increase in sales, requiring a $250.000 increase in average operating assets, with a resulting $200,000 increase in net operating income. What would be the company’s ROI in this scenario?
Answer:
1. ROI = Margin * Turnover
Margin = Net operating income / Sales
= 150,000 / 3,000,000
= 5%
Turnover = Sales / Average operating assets
= 3,000,000 / 750,000
= 4 times
ROI = 5% * 4
= 20%
2. Sales will increase by 50% and NOI will increase by 200%.
Margin = (150,000 * (1 + 200%)) / (3,000,000 * ( 1 + 50%))
= 10%
Turnover = (3,000,000 * ( 1 + 50%)) / 750,000
= 6
ROI = 10% * 6
= 60%
3. Sales will increase by $1,000,000. Average operating assets by $250,000 and NOI will increase by $200,000
Margin = (150,000 + 200,000) / (3,000,000 + 1,000,000)
= 8.75%
Turnover = (3,000,000 + 1,000,000) / (750,000 + 250,000)
= 4
ROI = 8.75% * 4
= 35%
