We are given the following information for the Pettit Corporation.
Sales (credit) $3,549,000
Cash 179,000
Inventory 911,000
Current liabilities 788,000
Asset turnover 1.40 times
Current ratio 2.95 times
Debt-to-assets ratio 40%
Receivables turnover 7 times
Current assets are composed of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, and inventory.
Calculate the following balance sheet items:
a. Accounts receivable.
b. Marketable securities.
c. Fixed assets.
d. Long-term debt.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
a. Accounts receivables
= Sales / Receivables turnover
= $3,549,000 / 7x
= $507,000
b. Marketable securities
= Current assets - (Cash + Accounts receivable + Inventory)
Where;
Current asset = Current ratio × Current liabilities
Current asset = 2.95 × $788,000
Current asset = $2,348,240
Hence,
Marketable securities
= $2,348,240 - ($179,000 + $507,000 + $911,000)
= $2,348,240 - $1,597,000
= $751,240
c. Fixed assets
Total assets = Current assets + Fixed assets
$2,535,000 = $2,348,240 + Fixed assets
Fixed assets = $2,535,000 - $2,348,240
Fixed assets = $186,760
d. Long term debt
= Total debt - Current liabilities
Where,
Total debt = Debt to assets × Total assets
= 40% × ($3,549,000 / 1.40)
= 40% × $2,535,000
= $1,014,000
Hence,
Long term debt
= $1,014,000 - $788,000
= $226,000
Your sister just deposited $5,500 into an investment account. She believes that she will earn an annual return of 8.8 percent for the next 6 years. You believe that you will only be able to earn an annual return of 8 percent over the same period. How much more must you deposit today in order to have the same amount as your sister in 6 years
Answer:
$5749.02
Explanation:
The first step is to determine the future value of my sister's deposit
The formula for calculating future value:
FV = P (1 + r)^n
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
5500 (1.088)^6 = $9122.97
the second step is to determine the present value of $9122.97 using an interest rate of 8%
$9122.97 / (1.08)^6 = $5749.02

Hyde's April 1, year 1 statement of stockholders' equity should report
Common stock Preferred stock APIC
a) $20,000 $60,000 $820,000
b) $20,000 $300,000 $580,000
c) $600,000 $300,000 $0
d) $600,000 $60,000 $240,000
Answer:
Common stock Preferred stock APIC
a) $20,000 $60,000 $820,000
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Hyde's April 1, year 1 statement of stockholders' equity should report
Calculation to determine the COMMON STOCK
Common stock=20,000 shares*$1
Common stock=$20,000
Calculation to determine PREFERRED STOCK
Preferred stock =6,000 shares*$10
Preferred stock =$60,000
Calculation to determine ADDITIONAL PAID-IN CAPITAL (APIC)
APIC=[(6000*$50)-(6000*$10)]+[(20,000*$30)+(20,000*$1)]
APIC=($300,000-$60,000)+($600,000-$20,000)
APIC=$240,000+$580,000
APIC=$820,000
Therefore Hyde's April 1, year 1 statement of stockholders' equity should report:
Common stock Preferred stock APIC
$20,000 $60,000 $820,000
In the simple Keynesian model, there are three simplifying assumptions. Among these assumptions is: __________

• The price level is constant until the economy reaches its full-employment level
• No retained earnings etc.
3. Assume that on January 2, 2022, the copyrighted item was impaired in its ability to continue to produce strong revenues. The other intangible assets were not affected. Starn estimated that the copyright would be able to produce future cash flows of $22,100. The fair value of the copyright was determined to be $21,100. Compute the amount, if any, of the impairment loss to be recorded.
Answer:
The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is $6,800.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
On January 1, 2020, Starn Tool & Manufacturing Company purchased a copyright for $31,000 cash. It is estimated that the copyrighted item will have no value by the end of 10 years.
Assume that on January 2, 2022, the copyrighted item was impaired in its ability to continue to produce strong revenues. The other intangible assets were not affected. Starn estimated that the copyright would be able to produce future cash flows of $22,100. The fair value of the copyright was determined to be $21,100. Compute the amount, if any, of the impairment loss to be recorded.
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
Amortization expenses for 2020 = Annual amortization expense = Copyright cost / Estimated useful life of the copyright = $31,000 / 10 = $3,100
Book value of copyright on January 2, 2022 = Copyright cost - Amortization expenses for 2020 = $31,000 - $3,100 = $27,900
Copyright fair value = $21,100
Impairment loss = Book value of copyright on January 2, 2022 - Copyright fair value = $27,900 - $21,100 = $6,800
Therefore, the amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is $6,800.
Holt Enterprises recently paid a dividend, D0, of $3.50. It expects to have nonconstant growth of 19% for 2 years followed by a constant rate of 10% thereafter. The firm's required return is 13%. How far away is the horizon date? The terminal, or horizon, date is Year 0 since the value of a common stock is the present value of all future expected dividends at time zero. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes nonconstant. This occurs at time zero. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the beginning of Year 2. The terminal, or horizon, date is the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the end of Year 2. The terminal, or horizon, date is infinity since common stocks do not have a maturity date.
Answer:
Holt Enterprises
The terminal, or horizon, date is:
the date when the growth rate becomes constant. This occurs at the end of Year 2.
Explanation:
a) Recent dividend, DO = $3.50
Expected non-constant growth = 19%
Period of non-constant growth = 2 years
Expected constant rate of growth = 10% after 2 years of non-constant growth
The firm's required return rate = 13%
b) The terminal or horizon date is, therefore, from the end of year 2 or beginning of year 3, when constant growth sets in with the Holt stock.
At the horizon date the dividend, D3, must have grown to $5.42 approx.
Then, the horizon value is given by the formula = D3 / required rate - growth rate
= 5.42 / 0.13 - 0.01
= 5.42 / 0.03
= $181
Warner Company purchases $52,200 of raw materials on account, and it incurs $62,200 of factory labor costs. Supporting records show that (a) the Assembly Department used $31,900 of the raw materials and $44,200 of the factory labor, and (b) the Finishing Department used the remainder. Manufacturing overhead is assigned to departments on the basis of 160% of labor costs. g
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry is given below:
Work in process - finishing department $28,800 ($62,200 - $44,200) × 160%
Work in process - assembly department $70,720 ($44,200 × 160%)
To Manufacturing overhead $99,520
(Being the overhead allocated to assembly and finishing department)
Here the work in process is debited as it increased the assets and the manufacturing overhead is credited as it decreased the expesne
Rolling Coast Inc. issued BBB bonds two years ago. These bonds provided a yield to maturity (YTM) of 11.5 percent. Long-term risk-free government bonds were yielding 8.7 percent at the time. The current risk premium on BBB bonds versus government bonds is half of what it was two years ago. If the risk-free long-term government bonds are currently yielding 7.8 percent, then at what interest rate should Rolling Coast expect to issue new bonds
Answer: 9.2%
Explanation:
The interest rate that Rolling Coast should expect to issue new bonds will be calculated thus:
Firstly, we will calculate the previous risk premium on BBB bonds which will be:
= 11.5% - 8.7% = 2.8%
Then, the new risk premium on BBB bonds will be:
= Previous risk premium / 2
= 2.8% / 2
= 1.4%
Then, the interest rate that Rolling Coast should expect to issue new bonds will be:
= 7.8% + 1.4%
= 9.2%
XYZ has the following for the January budget: Budgeted sales are $210,000; Cost of goods sold averages 66% of sales; Marketing costs are $3,600; Distribution costs are $5,300; Administrative costs are $10,100. The budgeted nonmanufacturing costs are
Answer:
Budgeted manufacturing cost= $138,600
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Budgeted sales are $210,000
Cost of goods sold averages 66% of sales
To calculate the budgeted manufacturing costs, we need to use the following formula:
Budgeted manufacturing cost= sales*COGS ratio
Budgeted manufacturing cost= 210,000*0.66
Budgeted manufacturing cost= $138,600

Mannisto Inc. uses the FIFO inventory cost flow assumption. In a year of rising costs and prices, the firm reported net income of $219,017 and average assets of $1,413,720. If Mannisto had used the LIFO cost flow assumption in the same year, its cost of goods sold would have been $36,220 more than under FIFO, and its average assets would have been $31,640 less than under FIFO.
Required:
Calculate the firm's ROI under each cost flow assumption (FIFO and LIFO).
Answer:
a) Under the FIFO method:-
ROI = 15.49%.
Under LIFO method:-
ROI = 13.2%
Explanation:
ROI = Net Income * 100 / Avverage assets.
a) Under the FIFO method
[tex]ROI= \frac{219017*100}{1413720} \\ROI = 15.49[/tex]
ROI = 15.49%.
Under LIFO method
[tex]ROI= \frac{182797*100}{1382080} \\ROI=13.2%[/tex]
ROI = 13.2%
Net income Under LIFO= Net income under FIFO-Increased cost of goods sold
= $219017-$36,220= $182797.
Average assets under LIFO= Average assets under FIFO-Average assets that are less under LIFO
= $1413720 - $31,640= $1382080.
Assume that an investor purchased a put option on BP with an exercise price of $1.900 for $0.0215 per unit. There are 31,250 units in a GBP options contract. At the time of the option expiration date, the spot price for GBP was $1.885. What was the net profit/loss on this option to the investor?
a. $203.125
b. $671.8750
c. $468.75
d. $1,140.625
Answer:
a. $203.125
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the net profit/loss on this option to the investor
Net profit/loss=((1.900 - 1.885) - 0.0215)(31,250)
Net profit/loss=(0.015-0.0215)*31,250
Net profit/loss=0.0065*31,250
Net profit/loss=$203.125
Therefore the net profit/loss on this option to the investor will be $203.125

The accounting records of Whispering Winds Corp. show the following data. Beginning inventory 3,010 units at $6 Purchases 8,130 units at $8 Sales 9,090 units at $11. Determine cost of goods sold during the period under a periodic inventory system using the FIFO method, the LIFO method, and the average-cost method.
Answer:
$66,700
b. LIFO = $70800
67807.81
Explanation:
LIFO means last in first out. It means that it is the last purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.
(8130 x 8) + [(9090 - 8130) x 6) = 70800
FIFO means first in, first out. It means that it is the first purchased inventory that is the first to be sold
(3010 x 6) + [(9090 - 3010) x $8] = 66,700
Average cost = [(3010 x 6) + (8130 x 8)] /

Installing an automated production system costing $300,000 is initially expected to save Zia Corporation $52,000 in expenses annually. If the system needs $7,500 in operating and maintenance costs each year and has a salvage value of $30,000 at year 10, what is the IRR of this system
Answer:
8.87%
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested
IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 0 = $-300,000
Cash flow each year from year 1 to 9 = $52,000 - $7,500 = $44500
Cash flow in year 10 = $44500 + $30,000 = $74500
IRR = 8.87%
To determine the value of IRR using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.

The following statements describe why profits for firms in a perfectly competitive industry tend to vanish in the long run. Select the explanation that most accurately reflects this scenario?
A) Firms try to increase supply to cover their costs if they experience losses, and this leads to zero profits.
B) Firms are unable to generate revenue over time because the demand for products drops.
C) When other perfectly competitive firms see an opportunity to earn profits and enter the market prices drop.
D) When other perfectly competitive firms see an opportunity to earn profits and enter the market, prices rise.
Answer:
The correct answer is the option C: When other perfectly competitive firms see an opportunity to earn profits and enter the market the prices drop.
Explanation:
To begin with, in the microeconomics theory the perfect competitive market is characterized by the fact that there a lot of companies that sell an homogenous product and that are price takers of the market itself. So therefore that the only big difference in the firms are the costs and the prices that they have. Moreover, in the long run the firms are obtaining great profits so that leads to the enter of another more companies to the market and the supply rises the prices will have to go low so that will implicate as well a decrease in the prices of every company that now works in that industry.
Suppose that the price of a cupcake is $4. At this price, 50 cupcakes will be demanded. If the price rises to $5 per cupcake, consumer surplus will
Answer: fall by less than $50.
Explanation:
The options are:
• fall by more than $50.
• fall by less than $50.
• rise by less than $50.
• rise by more than $50.
Expert Answer
Consumer surplus, is referred to as the economic measure of the excess benefit that a customer gets. The consumer surplus is the difference between the amount that the customer is willing to pay and the amount that he or she eventually pays.

Margin of safety = 80,000 / 40%
Margin of safety = $200,000

Assume that you have a three-year-old daughter and you have come to appreciate the power of saving and investing. Can you open up and put money into a Roth IRA in your child's name so that she can benefit from many years of compounding
Answer:
No.
You cannot open up and put money into a Roth IRA in your child's name.
Explanation:
The IRS allows that any child, regardless of age, can contribute to an IRA if they have earned income. This means that only a child that has earned income can have an IRA opened for him or her. As the child is still underage, the IRA must be set up as a custodial account by the parent or another adult. This implies that the child cannot operate the account during the period she is underage but can have money saved in the account from her earned income.
