Answer: 16.5%
Explanation:
Following the information given in the question, the simple rate of return on the proposed investment will be calculated thus:
= Annual cash flow / Initial investment
= $54,450 / $330,000
= 0.165
= 16.5%
Therefore, the simple rate of return on the proposed investment is 16.5%.
Analysis of Receivables Method At the end of the current year, Accounts Receivable has a balance of $440,000; Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a credit balance of $4,000; and sales for the year total $1,980,000. Using the aging method, the balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is estimated as $14,800.
Required:
a. Determine the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts.
b. Determine the adjusted balances of Accounts Receivable, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, and Bad Debt Expense.
c. Determine the net realizable value of accounts receivable.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts will be:
= Estimated balance required in Allowance account - Unadjusted balance existing in Allowance account
= $14800 - $4000
= $10800
b. The adjusted balances of Accounts Receivable, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, and Bad Debt Expense will be:
Account receivables = $440,000
Allowance for Doubtful accounts = $14,800
Bad Debt expense = $10800
c. The net realizable value of accounts receivable will be:
= Account receivables - Allowance for Doubtful accounts
= $440,000 - $14800
= $425200

The firm maintains a perpetual inventory system. Determine the cost of goods sold for each sale and the inventory balance after each sale, assuming the last-in, first-out method.
Answer:
The cost of goods sold for eachs ale and the inventory balance after each sale, assuming the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method:
Cost of goods sold Ending Inventory
Apr. 19 Sale $100,000 $60,000
Sept. 2 Sale $218,000 $40,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Date Description Units Unit Cost Total Balance
Jan. 1 Inventory 4,000 $40 $160,000
Apr. 19 Sale (2,500) (100,000) $60,000
June 30 Purchase 4,500 $44 198,000 258,000
Sept. 2 Sale (5,000) (218,000) 40,000
Nov. 15 Purchase 2,000 $46 92,000 132,000
Cost of goods sold: Ending Inventory
April 19: = 2,500 * $40 = $100,000 = 1,500 * $40 = $60,000
Sept 2: = 4,500 * $44 + 500 * $40 = 1,000 * $40 = $40,000

= $218,000
Eric receives a portion of his income from his holdings of interest-bearing U.S. government bonds. The bonds offer a real interest rate of 4.5% per year. The nominal interest rate on the bonds adjusts automatically to account for the inflation rate. The government taxes nominal interest income at a rate of 10%. The following table shows two scenarios: A low-inflation scenario and a high- inflation scenario. Given the real interest rate of 4.5% per year, find the nominal interest rate on Eric's bonds, the after-tax nominal interest rate, and the after-tax real interest rate under each inflation scenario. Inflation Rate Real Interest Nominal Interest After-Tax After-Tax (Percent) Rate Rate Nominal Interest Rate Real Interest (Percent) (Percent) (Percent) (Percent)2.0 4.5 7.0 4.5Compared with higher inflation rates, a lower inflation rate will_________ nominal interest income. This tends to_________ the after-tax real interest rate when the government taxes saving, thereby________ the quantity of investment in the economy and________ the economy's long-run growth rate.
Solution :
Given :
The bonds offer a [tex]\text{real interest rate}[/tex] of 4.5% per year
Tax rate = 10% = 0.10
Inflation rate = 2
[tex]\text{Nominal interest rate}[/tex] = [tex]\text{real interest rate}[/tex] + [tex]\text{inflation rate}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Nominal interest rate}[/tex] = 2 + 4.5
= 6.5
[tex]\text{After tax nominal rate}[/tex] = [tex]\text{Nominal interest rate}[/tex] [tex]$\times (1-\text{tax rate})$[/tex]
[tex]\text{After tax nominal interest rate}[/tex] = [tex]$6.5 \times (1-0.10)$[/tex]
[tex]$=6.5 \times 0.90$[/tex]
= 5.85
After tax real interest rate = [tex]\text{after tax nominal rate}[/tex] - [tex]\text{inflation rate}[/tex]
= 5.85 - 2.0
= 3.85
[tex]\text{Inflation rate}[/tex] = 7.0
[tex]\text{Real interest rate = 4.5}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Nominal interest rate}[/tex] = [tex]\text{real interest rate}[/tex] + [tex]\text{inflation rate}[/tex]
= 7 + 4.5
= 11.5
[tex]\text{After tax nominal interest rate}[/tex] = [tex]\text{Nominal interest rate}[/tex] [tex]$\times (1-\text{tax rate })$[/tex]
[tex]$=11.5 \times (1 - 0.10)$[/tex]
[tex]$=11.5 \times 0.90$[/tex]
= 10.35
[tex]\text{After tax nominal interest rate}[/tex] = 11.5 x (1 - 0.10)
= 11.5 x 0.90
= 10.35
[tex]\text{After tax nominal interest rate}[/tex] = [tex]\text{after tax nominal rate}[/tex] - [tex]\text{inflation rate}[/tex]
= 10.35 - 7.0
= 3.35
Putting all the value in table :
[tex]\text{Inflation rate}[/tex] Real interest Nominal interest After tax nominal After tax
rate rate interest rate interest rate
2.0 4.5 6.5 5.85 3.85
7.0 4.5 11.5 10.35 3.35
Comparing with the [tex]\text{higher inflation rate}[/tex], a [tex]\text{lower inflation rate}[/tex] will increase the after after tax real interest rate when the government taxes nominal interest income. This tends to encourage saving, thereby increase the quantity of investment in the economy and the increase the economy's long-run growth rate.
Bothell Company uses a job order costing system that allocates estimated overhead as 40% of prime costs. What is the cost of a job that required direct materials of $2,000 and direct labor of $5,200
Answer:
$10,080
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of the job is shown below:
We know that
prime cost = direct material + Direct labor
= $2,000 + $5,200
= $,7200
Now overhead is
= 40% of $7200
= $2,880
And,
Cost of job = direct material + Direct labor + overhead
= $2,000 + $5,200 + $2,880
= $10,080
Schultz v. Capital International Security, Inc. 460 F.3d 595 (4th Cir. 2006) Facts: The plaintiff-agents provided security services for Schultz and his family at his Virginia residence in twelve-hour shifts. The agents were paid a daily rate for each shift; they received no extra pay for overtime. The agents had a command post at the residence, from which they observed security camera monitors, answered the telephone, and kept a daily log of all arrivals and departures. They also made hourly walks of the property, ensured that members of his family were safe when departing and arriving, sorted mail, and performed various tasks upon request of his family. In addition to their security duties, the agents were responsible for having the household’s vehicles washed and fueled, making wake-up calls, moving furniture, and doing research on the Internet. Schultz's long-time driver and travel agent, Sammy Hebri, formed a company called Capital International Security, Inc. (CIS). Hebri started CIS for the purpose of becoming Schultz's security contractor. Hebri sent a memo (dated July 24, 2002) to the agents directing them to obtain their own private security business licenses from the VDCJS and individual liability insurance so they could be classified as independent contractors. Issue: The issue is whether the bodyguards were considered to be employees or independent contractors for the purpose of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Action: You must respond to all questions below. You must use at least three sources from the class materials and do independent research. Do not combine the five discussion questions and please use the outline below for your paper. Use of the outline will help you organize your research and comments and ensure you do not miss any questions that must be addressed. Your responses to each question must be in narrative format not bullets. Use the headings below to organize your paper.
Question 1A - a. Summarize the relevant facts of the case. What is your opinion on the outcome of this case?
Question 1c - Classification Test: In the above case, what kind of classification test could have been used and what would be the result?
Answer:
Hence the answer is given as follows,
Explanation:
1A) In the given case, the agents who are the plaintiffs were working as security guards for Schultz and his family. There was miscellaneous work that they were required to conduct for the family. The agents were paid a daily wage and weren't paid overtime. Schultz’s driver opened a replacement company called CIS and asked the agents to get their own private security business licenses in order that they will get classified as independent contractors. So, the difficulty arises that whether the agents should be classified as employees or as independent contractors.
The agents were paid a daily wage and not a salary. Moreover, they weren't qualified for overtime pay. Employees usually get salaries and are eligible to urge over time by the overtime work. Hence the agents are independent contractors and can't be considered employees.
1C) In the given case, a hybrid classification test is often wont to check the status of whether the agents were employees or independent contractors. A hybrid classification test has characteristics of right to regulate test also as economic realities test. Schultz and his family weren't controlling the work of the agents. The agents had pre-determined work and that was conducting it in an independent manner. The agents also were paid on a day to day and didn't have a timekeeping requirement. Hence the agents can qualify as independent contractors and not employees as per the hybrid classification test.
The phone rings in the next room and the assistant answers it. She tells the caller, "Yes, sir, he is here." After a moment she adds: "He has been here for about five or ten minutes, sir." She soon hangs up, and comes in with your coffee. She tells you that it should not be too much longer and again apologizes. She explains that the CEO stopped at a gas station to call in. She then tells you that the CEO is a bit "old fashioned." "He doesn't really use a cell phone," she says. She turns to leave, but you ask her to have a seat. You have an opportunity here. What should you ask the CEO's personal assistant?
Answer:
The best question to ask the CEO's personal assistant while you are waiting for the CEO is:
Could you tell me about your work environment?
Explanation:
This question will enable you to build rapport with the personal assistant and to learn more about the organization. It will expose the personal assistant's job satisfaction level, the job setting, and social features, including physical conditions for a worker at the organization to fulfill her responsibilities. The question will also expose the general employee feelings of wellbeing, workplace relationships, productivity efficiency, and employee health. It will expose the organization culture, which is an important determinant of organizational success.
The Aqua Liquid Assets Money Market Mutual Fund has a NAV of $1 per share. During the year, the assets held by this fund appreciated by 1.4 percent. If you had invested $50,000 in this fund at the start of the year, how many shares would you own at the end of the year
Answer:
Missing word "Final shares=? Net asset value=?"
Final shares is computed as follows:
= (Amount invested / NAV per share) * (1 + Fund appreciation)
= ($50,000 / $ 1) * (1 + 0.014)
= $50,000 * 1.014
= $50,700
As know that this is a Money Market Mutual Fund, hence the Net asset value of this fund at the end of the year will be also $1.

1. The highest risk for the exporter is in a. Letter of credit c. Advance payment b. Bill of exchange d. Consignment sales
Answer:
1. The highest risk for the exporter is in
d. Consignment sales.
Explanation:
a) A consignment sale is not an actual sale. The risk remains with the exporter until the consignee has sold the goods and remitted the required amount to the consignor (exporter). With a letter of credit, the exporter has made an actual sale guaranteed for payment by the importer's bank. With advance payment, the exporter has received some payment for the goods before the importer receives them. With a bill of exchange, there is a formal instrument acknowledging the sale. Therefore, a bill of exchange, letter of credit, and advance payment are used for actual sales, while consignment sale is for transfers of goods for sale.

Brandy’s Restaurant estimates that its total cost of providing Q meals per month is given by TC = 6,000 + 2 Q. If Brandy charges $4 per meal, what is its break-even level of output?
Answer: 3,000 meals
Explanation:
The 6,000 in this total cost formula represents the fixed costs of providing the Q meals per month.
The 2 represents the variable cost.
If a meal is $4, that means that the Contribution margin is:
= 4 - 2
= $2 per meal
The break-even level of output is:
= Fixed cost / Contribution margin per meal
= 6,000 / 2
= 3,000 meals
You are analyzing ABC Company, a computer manufacturer. You notice that inventory turnover this year is significantly lower than in prior years. You also notice that accounts receivable turnover is significantly lower this year when compared to previous years. Provide three explanations that would be consistent with your observation for inventory turnover and include an explanation of whether these would be of concern to you, as well as what the effect might be on the next period's financial results. In addition, provide three explanations that would be consistent with your observation of the accounts receivable turnover, and explain whether these would be of concern to you.
Answer:
ABC Company
1. Observation: Current year's inventory turnover is significantly lower than those of previous years.
Explanations:
1. Lower inventory turnover implies weaker sales for the current period than those of previous years.
2. Lower inventory turnover results from excessive inventory, which increases storage costs and interest expenses.
3. The ratio may also indicate that the demand for the product is declining rapidly. Many reasons can be adduced for this situation. Little marketing efforts, bad product, and lack of product competitiveness.
a) The formula for computing the inventory turnover equals Cost of goods sold/Average Inventory. The ratio shows the number of times goods are sold in a period. When goods are sold more frequently, sales activities increase, including revenue and profit.
2. Observation: Also current year's accounts receivable turnover is significantly lower than in previous years.
Explanations:
1. Billing inefficiency can contribute to lower accounts receivable turnover.
2. Poor credit policy may give rise to inefficient collection process, excessive bad debts, long credit days, bad customers, and lack of incentives to customers to settle their invoices.
3. Lastly, lower accounts receivable turnover may point to declining demand of the product by customers.
b) The formula for calculating the accounts receivable turnover is Net Credit Sales divided by Average receivables. The ratio determines the effectiveness of the company's credit policy.

2. Interest expense for the July 1–December 31 period was $__5,850___.
3. Book value of Bonds on June 30 was $__89,998___.
4. Book value of Bonds on December 31 was $__90,848___.
5. Interest payment on June 30 was $__5,000___.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
January 1, 2017:
Face value of issued bonds = $100,000 ($1,000 * 100)
Coupon rate of interest = 10%
Effective rate of interest = 13%
Price of issued bonds = $89,200 ($892 * 100)
Discount on bonds = $10,800 ($100,000 - $89,200)
Interest payment = June 30 and December 31 (semiannually)
June 30:
Interest expense = $5,798 ($89,200 * 6.5%)
Cash payment = $5,000 ($100,000 * 5%)
Amortization of discount = $798
Value of bonds = $89,998 ($89,200 + $798)
December 31, 2017:
Interest expense = $5,850 ($89,998 * 6.5%)
Cash payment = $5,000 ($100,000 * 5%)
Amortization of discount = $850
Value of bonds = $90,848 ($89,998 + $850)

which type of exporting has the least amount of commitment and risk but will probably return the least profit
Answer: Indirect Exporting
Explanation:
Indirect exporting describes a scenario where an entity exports to another country through an intermediary. They essentially sell to this intermediary and this intermediary then sells to consumers in other countries.
Much like investment banks underwriting stock, this type of exporting has very little risk and commitment attached because it simply involves one selling everything to an intermediary. The company exporting has therefore absolved itself of further risk which will then be incurred by the intermediary. t
The intermediary will however buy the goods at a discount due to the risk they take on. As a result, this gives less profit.
A computer manufacturer is producing a one-of-a-kind innovation called Innovel, a cloud computing software that helps navigate Internet content. While making the channel decision and finalizing the distribution arrangement, the manufacturer is keen on limiting the distribution of Innovel and gives only Techaven Inc. the rights to sell Innovel in that region. Techaven is known for its unique facilities and specialized inventories. In this case, the manufacturer is using the ________ arrangement of distribution.
Answer: exclusive
Explanation:
Exclusive distribution occurs when a manufacturer authorizes only one distributor to sells its product within a particular region. It should be noted that this distribution arrangement is typically used for premium and exclusive products.
Since the manufacturer is keen on limiting the distribution of Innovel and gives only Techaven Inc. the rights to sell Innovel in that region, the this is an exclusive arrangement of distribution.

Jamie is single. In 2020, she reported $108,000 of taxable income, including a long-term capital gain of $5,800. What is her gross tax liability
Answer:Jamie's gross tax liability is $19,572.50
Explanation:
Since Jamie is single with taxable income of $108,000 which includes $5,800 long term capital gain.
Therefore $102,200 (108,000 -5,800) will be taxed under normal tax rates and $5,800 would be under long term capital gain tax rate.
With regards the 2020 tax schedule, Since her ordinary income is $102,200, Jamie falls under 24% rate tax bracket under filing for single status.
qd
Tax liability on ordinary income =$14,382.50 plus 24% of any income you made above $84,200
14,382.50 + 0.24 (102,200 - 84,200)
14,382.50 + 0.24 x 18000
= 14,382.50 + 4,320
= $18,702.50
Also, according to her income, longterm capital gain tax applicable in 2020 is 15%
Tax on long term capital gain = 5,800 × 0.15
= $870
Jamie's gross tax liability is $18,702.50 + 870 = $19,572.50
