What this means is that trade negotiators who work for lobbyists of foreign firms will typically want to advance the interests of the foreign firms when negotiating trade deals for the U.S. government.
This presents a problem because the foreign companies might want to negotiate a deal that favors their own countries over the United States so if trade negotiators that are on their side are the ones negotiating for the United States, the U.S. might not get a good enough deal.
Imagine for instance, a person negotiating a trade deal for the U.S. with China but the person works for lobbyists of Huawei. It is reasonable to assume that the person would want to advance the interests of China on behalf of Huawei. Restricting such a person from negotiating for the U.S. reduces such a possibility.
The gain or loss from retirement of debt is reported under cash flows from operating activities on the statement of cash flows using the indirect method.
a. True
b. False

Since there is the gain or loss from the retirement of the bonds so the same should be deducted or added to the net income as the case may be
Therefore the correct option is a.

A company started the year with $1,500 of supplies on hand. During the year the company purchased additional supplies of $800 and recorded them as increase to the supplies asset. At the end of the year the company determined that only $300 of supplies are still on hand. What is the adjusting journal entry to be made at the end of the period
Answer:
Debit : Supplies Expense $2,000
Credit : Supplies $2,000
Explanation:
The adjusting journal entry to be made at the end of the period should reflect the usage of supplies.
Supplies used = Opening Balance + Purchases - Inventory Balance
therefore,
Supplies used = $1,500 + $800 - $300
= $2,000
A Debit to Expense Account - Supplies Expense and A Credit to Asset Account - Supplies must be made to depict the usage of supplies.

A stock has a market price of $25 and a standard deviation of returns of 24 percent. The $25 call option matures in 4 months and the risk-free rate is 2.89 percent. N(d1) is .555198 and N(d2) is .500096. What is the value of the call option per share of stock
Answer:
$334.38
Explanation:
Use the following formula to calculate the value of call option
Value of call option = ( N ( [tex]d_{1}[/tex] ) S ) - N ( [tex]d_{2}[/tex] ) K [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]
Where
S = $25
N(d1) = 0.555198
N(d2) = 0.500096
K = 25
r = 2.89%
t = 4/12 = 0.3333
Placing values in the formula
Value of call option = ((0.555198 x $25 ) x $25) - ( 0.500096 x $25 ) x 1.00967891
Value of call option = $346.99875 - $12.62340
Value of call option = $334.37535
Value of call option = $334.38
how van an oligopoly cause market failure (8)
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
An oligopoly can cause market failure because companies that form the oligopoly do not allow other companies to enter and compete in the market. This action limits consumers to choose from a variety of options, including quality, the best price, and service.
Often, oligopoly associates the strongest or more powerful companies in order to wipe out other minor competitors. They want to establish a dominant presence that affects prices and consumers participation.
Oligopoly practices result in inefficiency and instability in the market. That is why oligopolies are not good for the economy.
The automobile industry is mostly associated with an oligopoly.
When a market is controlled by just a few numbers of companies, but none of them is above the others, we are talking about an oligopoly. They can collude intentionally or not, to establish prizes and to not let other companies compete with them.
You took ACC111 where the Owner's Equity section consisted of Capital and Owner's Withdrawals. Now that you've seen the corporate structure of the Owner's Equity section, how do the individual items in the Sole Proprietor's Equity section translate to the Corporate Equity section? For example, Revenues are closed out into Capital for Sole Proprietor, Where does it go for Corporate?
Answer:
Revenues are closed out to Equity (Retained Earnings) for Corporate.
Explanation:
Actually, for both Sole Proprietor and Corporate, the account that is closed out to Capital or Equity is the difference between the Revenue and the Expenses for the accounting period. This is more specifically referred to as Net Income. This is the bottom-line profit, which is available for distribution to the owners of the entity in the form of capital withdrawals for Sole Proprietorships and dividends for Corporate entities.

a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
It is correct to say that a company like Haier, which has become a global leader in the household appliance industry segment, has developed a beneficial strategy for success, as entering a global market can be a great challenge for companies, as it requires business, product and services of the company to the local market that includes cultural and social differentiation in the preferences for products and services. So it is correct to say that the company has adopted a beneficial global strategy that gives it significant advantages such as market positioning, cost reduction, greater competitive capacity, greater brand value, increased profitability, etc.
The Real Option Inc. is considering a new project. It believes that each year it would be able to sell 15 units at a $300,000 per-unit after-tax profit (i.e., per-unit operating cash flow) for the next five years. A $14.8 million initial investment will be required at the beginning of the project. The appropriate discount rate is 16 percent.
Required:
Calculate the base-case NPV of this project.
Answer:
NPV = $10.708 million
Explanation:
The base case NPV is that calculated by discounting the after-tax cash flow by the cost of equity based on asset beta. The base-case NPV does not consider the financing effect of the any particular finance source used to fund the project.
NPV = PV of cash inflow - Initial outlay
After-tax cash flow = 300,000×15= 4.5 million
PV of cash inflow = cash inflow × A × (1- (1+r)^(-n)/r
4.5 ×( 1- (1.16^-5)/0.16= 25.508 million
NPV = PV of cash inflow - Initial outlay
NPV = 25.508 million - 14.8 million
NPV = $10.708 million
Bakers are much ___________ likely to supply pastries to the market if property rights are not enforced. In the presence of market failures, public policy can improve economic efficiency. Classify the source of market failure in each case listed.
a. A manufacturing plant dumps chemical waste into a nearby river, poisoning the water supply for a small town downstream.
b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity.
Answer: more; externality; market power.
Explanation:
Bakers are much (more) likely to supply pastries to the market if property rights are not enforced.
a. A manufacturing plant dumps chemical waste into a nearby river, poisoning the water supply for a small town downstream. - Externality
Externality, refers to the benefit s or costs that someone else incurs based on the economic decision of another person. In this case, this is a negative externality as the small town bears the cost of the production activities of the company.
b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity - Market power
Market power is when a firm is able to dictate the price and can then raise the price. This brings about the reduction in output as well. Since the single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state, the company is enjoying monopoly power or market power.
GHI Corporation, a California corporation, has a six-person board. At a regular board meeting, only two directors attend. No notice was sent to any of the directors. The two attending call directors Alice and Bob and put them on a conference call. The four talk about the corporation buying Blackacre and then all agree to a resolution for GHI to buy Blackacre from Third Party. The Bylaws of GHI state that an action of the board requires the consent of a majority of the directors present at a meeting, and that a quorum is a majority of the authorized directors.
Select one:
a. the purchase is authorized because a quorum was present and a majority of those present approved the action.
b. the purchase is not authorized, since all real estate transactions require shareholder approval
c. the purchase is not authorized because prior written notice must be sent to each director
d. the purchase is not authorized because a quorum was not present at the board meeting
e. Two of the above are correct.
Answer:
a. the purchase is authorized because a quorum was present and a majority of those present approved the action.
Explanation:
going by the bye laws of GHI state, board action requires that majority of the members of the board are present and give consent in the meeting. here in this question, we have a 6 member board. Although only two of the board members are physically present, through conference call Alice and Bob increased the number to 2 when they joined in. Therefore the number of board members at this meeting is 4, then the requirement has been met. So since this 4 agreed to the purchase, it is authorized and valid since a quorum was present and a majority of them agreed to the action. option a is correct
The correct statement is a. the purchase is authorized because a quorum was present and, a majority of those present approved the action.
The quorum required by the Bylaws of GHI is for a majority of directors to be present, and in this case, four directors were present (two physically and two by conference call).
The Bylaws of GHI specify that every action of the directors should be supported by a majority present at a meeting. We can conclude that the purchase is authorized by the majority (100%).
Thus, the purchase of Blackacre by GHI is authorized.

Lin Corporation has a single product whose selling price is $134 per unit and whose variable expense is $67 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $31,750. Required: 1. Calculate the unit sales needed to attain a target profit of $8,450. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) 2. Calculate the dollar sales needed to attain a target profit of $9,700.
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed cost= $31,750
Unitary contribution margin= 134 - 67= $67
To calculate the number of units to be sold, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Desired profit= $8,450
Break-even point in units= (31,750 + 8,450) / 67
Break-even point in units= 600
Now, the desired profit is $9,700; we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= (31,750 + 9,700) / (67/134)
Break-even point (dollars)= 41,450 / 0.5
Break-even point (dollars)= $82,900

A company's beginning Work in Process inventory consisted of units that were 90 % complete with respect to direct labor A total of were finished during the period and remaining in Work in Process inventory were 40 % complete with respect to direct labor at the end of the period . Using the weighted average method the equivalent units of production with regard to direct labor were :
Answer: 109,800 units
Explanation:
Equivalent Units of Production with respect to Direct Labor can be calculated as:
= Units completed during the period + Equivalent ending Work in Process Inventory (1)
Equivalent ending Work in Process Inventory = 32,000 ending units * 40% completion with respect to direct labor
= 12,800 units
EUP direct labor = 97,000 + 12,800 (1)
= 109,800 units

Emily and Betsey are economists. Emily thinks that the wealthiest 10 percent of the U.S. population should be taxed a rate higher than the rest of society because they can better afford it. Betsey thinks that everyone should be taxed at the same rate because that is the fairest scenario and the wealthy should not be penalized for their success. In this example, Emily and Betsey:______
Answer: b. have different normative views about tax policy.
Explanation:
Economists follow different theories and principles on how the world should be so most times they will disagree with each other on key issues such as taxation and government intervention in markets.
Emily and Betsy both believe in different taxation policies which means that they have different views on how people should be taxed in an economy with one of them believing in a proportional tax regime (Betsey) and the other believing in a progressive tax regime (Emily).
Juanita worked hard all year so that she could go to nursing school the following year. She put her savings into a mutual fund that paid a nominal interest rate of 4 percent a year. The CPI was 252 at the beginning of the year and 257 at the end of the year. What was the real interest rate that Juanita earned?
Answer:
1.98%
Explanation:
Inflation rate = (CPI at the end of the year / CPI at the beginning of the year) - 1
(257 / 252) - 1 = 0.01984 = 1.984%
(1 + nominal interest rate) = (1 + inflation rate) (1 + real interest rate)
1.04 = 1.01984 x (1 + real interest rate)
(1 + real interest rate) = (1.04 / 1.01984) - 1 = 1.98%
Maplewood Co. uses process costing to account for the production of canned energy drinks. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. Cost per equivalent unit has been calculated to be $4.00 for conversion costs and $3.00 for materials. 2,000 units were in beginning inventory (100% complete for materials, 80% for conversion). 8,000 units were started and completed during the period. Ending inventory still in process was 4,000 units (100% complete for materials, 40% forconversion). The value of ending inventory using the FIFO method would be:______.
A. $18,400.00B. $23,133.20C. $31,933.20D. $65,000.00
Answer:
A. $18,400.00
Explanation:
The computation of the value of ending inventory using the FIFO method would be shown below:
Value of ending inventory = Materials + Conversion costs
where,
Materials = (4000 units × 100%) × $3 per unit
= $12,000
And,
Conversion costs = (4000 units × 40%) × $4 per unit
= $6,400
So, the ending inventory is
= $12,000 + $6,400
= $18,400
