Answer:

If property rights are not well enforced, all of the following are likely to occur except;_________

A. a significant number of people will be willing to risk their funds by investing them in local businesses.

Explanation:

Other options are likely to occur, except option A.  Investors cannot risk their capital investing in the local economy.  This is the fate of an economy where property rights are not protected.  This also underlines the need for each government to ensure that property rights are recognized and legally protected.

A truck acquired at a cost of $120,000 has an estimated residual value of $5,300, has an estimated useful life of 37,000 miles, and was driven 3,300 miles during the year. Determine the following. If required, round your answer for the depreciation rate to two decimal places.
a. The depreciable cost $
b. The depreciation rate $ per mile
c. The units-of-activity depreciation for the year $

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Truck = $120,000

Residual Value = $5,300

Useful Life = 37,000 miles

a. Depreciable Cost = Cost of Truck -  Residual Value

Depreciable Cost = $120,000 - $5,300

Depreciable Cost = $114,700

b. Depreciation Rate = Depreciable Cost / Useful Life

Depreciation Rate = $114,700/37,000 miles

Depreciation Rate = $3.1 per mile

c. Number of miles driven during the year = 3,300

Depreciation for the Year = Depreciation Rate * Number of miles driven during the year

Depreciation for the Year = $3.1 per mile * 3,300

Depreciation for the Year = $10,230

Answers

Answer:

$842

Explanation:

The computation of the One year from now bond C should sell is shown below;

But before that we have to determined the expected yield to maturity for bond C in one year :

So,  

1.0799^3 = 1.06 x (1 + r)^2

1.188 = (1 + r)^2

√1.188 = √(1 + r)^2

1.08999 = 1 + r

r = 0.08999

= 9%

Now

the yield to maturity  = (future value ÷ present value)^0.5 - 1

0.09 + 1 = ($1,000 ÷ value in 1 year)^0.5  

1.09 = ($1,000 ÷ value in 1 year)^0.5

1.09^2 = $1,000 ÷ value in 1 year

So,

value in 1 year is

= $1,000 ÷ 1.09^2

= $1,000 ÷ 1.1881

= $841.68

Fones Inc. and Speed Dial Corp. are two competitors in the mobile phone market. The cost incurred by each company to manufacture smartphones is $200 per unit. Although both the companies sell their smartphones at the same price, Speed Dial Corp. has a larger market share in the smartphone industry. What does this imply

Answers

Answer: C. Speed Dial Corp has been able to offer more perceived value than Fones Inc.

Explanation:

Both companies incur the same costs to produce the phone and also sell at the same price. This means that they should be selling the same number of phones in theory. This is not the case however as Speed Dial Corp is selling more.

The reason Speed Dial must be selling more phones is that they sell a better phone for the same price. In offering more value to the customer for the same price, the customers are buying more from Speed Dial than from Fones because they are getting a better deal for the same price which means that Speed Dial's phone is undervalued.

Answers

Answer:

$30,000 in total

Explanation:

The annual dividend on preferred stock can be determined based on the dividend rate, in other words, the annual dividend is the dividend rate multiplied by the face value of the preferred stock as shown thus:

annual dividend on preferred stock=number of preferred shares outstanding*par value per share*dividend rate

number of preferred shares outstanding=5,000

par value per share=$100

dividend rate=6%

50,000 shares refer to the number of common stocks outstanding

annual dividend on preferred stock=5000*$100*6%

annual dividend on preferred stock=$30,000

dividend per share=$30000/5000=$6

a. $888.88
b. $1,000.00
c. $1,111.11
d. Not enough information to answer.
e. None of the above is feasible.

Answers

Answer: c. $1,111.11

Explanation:

When a bond's coupon rate is higher than the prevailing interest rate, the bond will be more sought after because it is paying more than the market is paying. As a result, the price of the bond will be higher than its par value to reflect the increased demand for it.

In other words, when a bond coupon rate is higher than the interest rate, the price will be higher than par. This is the case here so the bond will be selling at a higher price than $1,000 and the only option higher than $1,000 is option c at $1,111.11.

There are 14 units of the product in the physical inventory at November 30. The periodic inventory system is used. Determine the inventory cost in (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, and (c) average cost methods.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory by following methods are

a. Under FiFO

= 14 units at $39

= $546

b. Under LIFO

= 14 units at $29

= $406

c, Under average cost method

But before that the average cost per unit should be determined

= (22 units at $29 + 31 units at $20 + 46 units at $39) ÷ (22 units + 31 units + 46 units)

= ($638 + $620 + $1,794) ÷ (99 units)

= $30.83

Now the ending inventory is

= $30.83 × 14 units

= $431.62

= $432
