Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
It should be noted that M1 will be derived as Currency plus the Travelers check while M2 will be M1 plus the certificate of deposit plus the money market account.
a. Van has $2,500 in a savings account.
It should be noted that money in a savings account will have to be included in M2.
b. Paolo has a $10 bill in his wallet.
This fits into the description of both M1 and M2 forms of money.
c. Amy has $7,000 in a six-month certificate of deposit (CD)
The certificate of deposit is included in the M2.
Answer:
Option A is M2
Option B is M1
Option C is M2
Explanation:
The above classifications speak to various categories of money supply.
M1 refers to the supply of money that is composed of physical currency such as notes, coins, demand deposits other checkable deposits, etc.
Simply put, M1 would include forms of money that are liquid or easy to convert into cash.
M2 and M3 which are also known as "near money" and "near, near money," are money types which cannot be converted to currency as quickly as M1.
Another example of M2 is Money Market Mutual Funds. M1 is often included when calculating for M2.

Akers Company sold bonds on July 1, 2017, with a face value of $100,000. These bonds are due in 10 years. The stated annual interest rate is 6% per year, payable semiannually on June 30 and December 31. These bonds were sold to yield 8%. By July 1, 2018, the market yield on these bonds had risen to 10%.
Required:
What was the bonds' market price on July 1, 2018?
Answer:
Price of bond= $75,075.58
Explanation:
The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
The value of the bond for Akers Company can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payments
Semi annul interest payment
= 6% × 100,000 × 1/2 = 3000
Semi-annual yield = 10%/2 = 5% per six months
Total period to maturity (in months)
= (2 × 10) = 20 periods
PV of interest =
3000 × (1- (1+0.05)^( -20)/) 0.05 = 37,386.63
Step 2
PV of Redemption Value
= 100,000 × (1.05)^(-20) = 37,688.95
Price of bond
Price of bond = 37,386.63 + 37,688.95 = 75,075.58
Price of bond= $75,075.58
3. There a number of market entry strategies that businesses use in entering into markets outside their countries. a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses. b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?
Answer:
a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses.
Franchising consists in the licensing of aspects of production and intellectual property to a another party: the franchise.
A Joint Venture is a business union between two or more parties, in which they split profit as well as costs and responsabilities.
b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?
Franchising can be a quicker way to expand into foreign markets. The flexibility of the method, and the lower capital requirements are the reason why. This can be seen in the success that American fast-food brands have had using this method to expand in global markets.
A Joint-Venture can be more difficult to use for market expansion, however, it can be more profitable, because the profit will not be split among as many parties as in franchising, and more importantly, the firm maintains a higher control of the operation.

If an investor purchases a bond when its current yield is higher than the coupon rate, then the bond's price will be expected to
Answer:
The answer is: The bond price is expected to Increase over time, reaching par value at maturity
Explanation:
If an investor purchased a bond when the bond current yield-to-maturity is higher than the bond's price, the bond is said to be bought at discount (its price is less than the face value at maturity). With this, the bond price will be expected to Increase over time, reaching par value at maturity.
And when the opposite happens i.e coupon rate higher than the current yield-to-maturity, the bond is said to be bought at premium.
Sue Helms Appliances wants to establish an assembly line to manufacture its new product, the Micro Popcorn Popper. The goal is to produce five poppers per hour. The tasks, task times, and immediate predecessors for producing one Micro Popcorn Popper are as follows:

B 10 A
C 8 A,B
D 10 B,C
E 8 C

a. The theoretical minimum number of workstations is:___________
b. The assignment of tasks to workstations should be:________
Were you able to assign all the activities to workstations equivalent to the theoretical minimum workstation ?
c. The efficiency of the assembly line is:________
Answer:
Please see explanation below.
Explanation:
a. Cycle time = Production time available per hour / Units required per hour
= 60 / 5
= 12minutes
Minimum number of workstations = Sum of the task time / Cycle time
Sum of task time
= 8 + 10 + 8 + 10 + 8 + 4
= 48
The theoretical minimum number of work stations is
= 48 / 12
= 4
b. In order to assign the tasks to the work station, events that precede the task must be considered together with the time taken to complete each task.
°Task A This task is assigned to work station 1 and no task would further be assigned to work station 1, otherwise it will exceed the cycle time.
°Task B. This next task will be assigned to work station 2, no additional task will be assigned to station 2.
Task C is assigned to workstation 3, hence can no longer accept any other assigned task.
°Task D is the next task and will be assigned to work station 4, and we cannot assign any more task to work station 4.
°Task E and F will not be assigned as there are no more available stations.
Task Time Workstation
A. 8 1
B. 10 2
C. 8 3
D. 10 4
E. 8 -
F. 4 -
Please note that due to the theoretical minimum number of work station, which is 4, it will not be possible to assign task to all the workstations hence task E and F remains unassigned.
C. Efficiency of the assembly line
Efficiency ;
= Sum of task times / Actual number of work stations × cycle time
Although the actual number of required workstation is 5 but we cannot assign task E and F due to the theoretical minimum number of workstation. Therefore, additional work station will be required and there are 5 work stations in total.
= 48 ÷ (5 × 12) × 100
= 80%
The theoretical minimum should be = 4
The efficiency of the assembly line should be 80 percent
The production time = 60
The units that are required per hour = 5
[tex]cycle time = \frac{minutes in one hour}{units needed in a day} \\\\cycle time=\frac{60}{5}[/tex]
= 12
The workstation = 8+10+8+10+8+4

Your first baby was born yesterday and is healthy and strong. To guard against your premature death, you want to purchase a life insurance policy that will replace $58,000 of your annual income until your child is 20 years old. How much life insurance should you purchase, if you assume a 3% inflation rate
Answer:
assuming the interest rate is = 15% the life insurance should you should purchase = $497854.0773
Explanation:
Given that :
Annual income receipt = $58000
Assumption:
If we assume that the inflation rate π = 3% = 0.03
Also , let assume that the interest rate is = 15% = 0.15 since it is not given too
Then the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (i-\pi)}{(1+\pi)}[/tex]
the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.15-0.03)}{(1+0.03)}[/tex]
the effective interest rate = [tex]\dfrac{ (0.12)}{(1.03)}[/tex]
the effective interest rate = 0.1165
the effective interest rate = 11.65%
Since n = [tex]\infty[/tex]
The Principal amount of how much life insurance should you purchase is;
= Annual income receipt/the effective interest rate
= $58000/ 0.1165
= $497854.0773

Answer:
It will incur an Opportunity cost of $8,000.
Explanation:
It will incur the opportunity cost of $8000 because the additional unit produces by the company then the additional revenue that is generated will be equal to the amount (25 - 20) x 12,000 = 60,000. Since the additional cost, that incurs for the production of 12000 units is 52000. Therefore the profit earned is $8000.
So if the company does not produce it then it will lose the profit of $8000.

On January 1, Parson Freight Company issues 9.0%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $3,400,000. The bonds pay interest semiannually. The market rate of interest is 10.0% and the bond selling price was $3,168,967. The bond issuance should be recorded as:
Answer:
January 1
Cash $3168967 Dr
Discount on Bonds Payable $231033
Bonds Payable $3400000 Cr
Explanation:
The issuance of bond on January 1 is at a discount as the coupon rate paid by the bond is less than the market interest rate. In such case the bond is issued at a lower value than its par/face value. The discount on bonds payable is the difference between the face value and the cash received on issuance.
The entry to record the issues include a debit to cash account as cash is received, a debit to the discount on bonds payable account for the amount of discount and a credit to bonds payable account as liability is created as a result of the issuance of the bonds.
Discount = 3400000 - 3168967 = 231033
In Macroland autonomous consumption equals 100, the marginal propensity to consume equals 0.75, net taxes are fixed at 40, planned investment is fixed at 50, government purchases are fixed at 150, and net exports are fixed at 20. Planned aggregate expenditure equals:________a.1,000. b.1,160. c.1,280. d.1,440.
Answer:
b) $1,160
Explanation:
From the above information,
I=Investment = 50
G=Government expenditure = 150
X=Net export = 20
a=autonomous consumption = 100
b=Marginal propensity to consume = 0.75
Y=Equilibrium GDP
C = consumption ;
C = 100 + 0.75Y (Y income - 40 taxes)
Planned aggregate expenditure (PAE)
PAE = C + l +G +X
Substituting for C in the above equation,
PAE = 100 + 0.75 (Y - 40) + 50 + 150+ 20
= 100 + 0.75Y -30 + 50 + 150 + 20
= 290 + 0.75Y
Since short run exists when Y = PAE
Therefore,
Y = 290 + 0.75Y
Collect like terms
Y - 0.75Y = 290
0.25Y =290
Y = 290/0.25
Y = 1,160
You purchased a share of stock for $120. One year later you received $1.82 as a dividend and sold the share for $136. What was your holding-period return
Answer:
Holding period return =14.85 %
Explanation:
The return on stock is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.
Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.
Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.
Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:
Holding period return = (Dividend + capital gain)/Begin Price of stock × 100
Dividend = $1.82
Capital gains= 136 - 120 = 16
Total dollar return on Investment = 1.82 + 16= $ 17.82
= 17.82/120 × 100 = 14.85 %
Holding period return =14.85 %

Calculate the predetermined overhead rate for 2020, assuming Lott Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $ 882,000, direct labor costs of $735,000, and direct labor hours of 21,000 for the year.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Company estimates total manufacturing overhead costs of $882,000 and, direct labor costs of $735,000
To calculate the predetermined overhead rate, we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 882,000/735,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.2 per direct labor dollar
What are the benefits and risks associated with social networks? Support your answers with relevant examples
Answer:
Explanation:
There are many benefits as well as risks to social networks. The greatest benefit is that they allow us to connect with individuals from anywhere in the world, at any distance, and in a seconds notice. This is incredibly powerful and opens the door for many opportunities in all types of markets.

A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
($millions) Beverage Division Cheese Division
Invested assets, beginning $ 2,662 $ 4,455
Invested assets, ending 2,593 4,400
Sales 2,681 3,925
Operating income 349 634
1. Compute return on investment.
2. Compute profit margin.
3. Compute investment turnover for the year.A food manufacturer reports the following for two of its divisions for a recent year.
Answer and Explanation:
1. Return on investment is
= Operating Income ÷ Average invested Assets
here, average invested assets is
= (Invested assets, beginning + Invested assets, ending) ÷ 2
For Beverage Division
= $349 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)
= $349 ÷ $2,628
= 13.28%
For Cheese Division
= $634 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)
= $634 ÷ $4,428
= 14.32%
2. Profit margin = (Operating income ÷ sales) × 100
For Beverage Division
= ($349 ÷ $2,681) × 100
= 13.02%
For Cheese Division
= ($634 ÷ $3,925) × 100
= 16.15%
3. Investment turnover = Sales ÷ Average Operating Assets
For Beverage Division
= $2,681 ÷ (($2,662 + $2,593) ÷ 2)
= $2,681 ÷ $2,628
= 1.02 times
For Cheese Division, it would be
= $3,925 ÷ (($4,455 + $4,400) ÷ 2)
= $3,925 ÷ $4,428
= 0.89 times
The Whistling Straits Corporation needs to raise $74 million to finance its expansion into new markets. The company will sell new shares of equity via a general cash offering to raise the needed funds. The offer price is $45 per share and the company's underwriters charge a spread of 6 percent. If the SEC filing fee and associated administrative expenses of the offering are $825,000, how many shares need to be sold? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)
Answer:
1,768,913 new stocks
Explanation:
the company needs to raise amount needed to finance expansion plus SEC's filing and administrative fees = $74,000,000 + $825,000 = $74,825,000
net amount received per stock issued = stock price x (1 - underwriting fee) = $45 x (1 - 6%) = $42.30 per stock
the company needs to issue = $74,825,000 / $42.30 per stock = 1,768,912.53 = 1,768,913 new stocks
A sole proprietor owned an office building with a cost of $300,000 and accumulated depreciation of $40,000, using modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS) straight-line depreciation. In the current year, she sold the building for $320,000. What is the unrecaptured Section 1250 gain from this sale, if any
Answer:
The Correct Answer:
$40,000
Explanation:
IRC Section 1250 requires that excess depreciation (actual depreciation in excess of straight-line depreciation) be recaptured as ordinary income. Since the property has sold for more than the adjusted basis ($300,000 − $40,000 = $260,000 adjusted basis), the initial gains are recaptured based on the original purchase price of $300,000.
This makes the first $40,000 of the profit subject to the unrecaptured Section 1250 gain while the remaining $20,000 is considered regular long-term capital gains.
