Answer: income statement ; liability on the balance sheet
Explanation:
It should be noted that wages and salaries expense don't appear on the balance sheet directly. They appear in the income statement.
On the other hand, salaries and wages payable is considered to be a liability on the balance sheet. Therefore, the correct option is "income statement ; liability on the balance sheet".
Project Management Practice ProblemBragg’s Bakery is building a new automated bakery downtown Sandusky. Here are the activities that need to be completed to get the new bakery built and the equipment installed.
ACTIVITYPREDECESSORNORMAL TIME (WEEK)CRASH TIME (WEEK)EXPEDITING COST/WEEKA-963000BA853500CA15104000DB,C532000EC1062500FD,E215000
Hint: I have directly provided the crashing cost per unit time.
a. What is the normal project length?
b. What is the critical path in this project?
c. Which activity will you choose to crash first to reduce the duration of the project by one week?
d. What is the project length if all activities are crashed to their minimum?
e. What is the slack for activity D?
Answer:
a. The normal project length is 36 weeks.
b. The critical path in this project is A-C-E-F.
c. The activity that you choose to crash first to reduce the duration of the project by one week is E because it has the least expediting cost/week amongst A, C, E, F.
d. The project length if all activities are crashed to their minimum is 23 weeks.
e. The slack for activity D is 5 weeks.
Explanation:
a) The normal length of the project = completion time of last activity = 36 weeks.
b) The criteria for critical activity:
[tex]LC_{i} = ES_{i} ,\\LC_{j} = ES_{j} ,\\[/tex]
[tex]ES_j - ES_i = LF_j - LF_{i} =[/tex] duration of the activity
where ES = Earliest start time, EF = Earliest finish time , LC = latest completion time, LF = latest finish time ,
The suffix- i refers to the preceding node, suffix-j refers to the succeeding node.
activities satisfying above all criteria are A, C, E, F
therefore critical path is A-C-E-F.
c) To reduce the project duration by 1 week. we should choose to crash among critical activities A, C, E, F. thus we choose to crash activity E because it has the least expediting cost/week amongst A, C, E, F.
d) if we crash all the activities to their minimum, then the project length = sum of crash time of all critical activities
= [6 + 10 + 6 + 1]
= 23 weeks.
e) The slack of activity d = LS - ES = 34 - 29
= 5 weeks
The critical path is given in the diagram,

Which of the following is/are subject to the restrictions of the fair debt collection practice act
The available options are:
A. Amelia, a business creditor attempting to collect her own debt from Bednar, a private party customer who had fallen six-months behind on payments to Amelia.
B. Mees, the owner of a debt collection agency, who is attempting to collect a debt as an agent of Big Corporation.
C. Nichole, a business creditor attempting to collect her own debt from Jared Incorporated, a business debtor that had fallen one-year behind on payments to Nichole.
D. The restrictions of the FDCPA would apply to Amelia the business creditor, Nichole the business creditor and Mees, the debt collection agent.
Answer:
B. Mees, the owner of a debt collection agency, who is attempting to collect a debt as an agent of Big Corporation.
Explanation:
The restrictions of the fair debt collection practice act apply only to the "DEBT COLLECTORS who obtain an account for a collection of debt that belongs to another company."
This is defined by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Section 803, subchapter 6. The term DEBT COLLECTOR is carefully defined in six categories, and it does not involve business creditors attempting to collect their debt by themselves, the closest is their employees attempting to collect the debt on their behalf.
Hence, considering the available options, the correct answer is "Mees, the owner of a debt collection agency, who is attempting to collect a debt as an agent of Big Corporation."

Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
Year Future value present value Discount factors
1 $10,000.00 $9,170 0.917
2 $10,000.00 $8,410 0.841
3 $10,000.00 $7,720 0.772
4 $10,000.00 $7,080 0.708
5 $10,000.00 $6,490 0.649
Now
Net present value = -$20,000 + $10,000(PVIFA 9% 5 Years)
= -$20,000 + $10000 × (3.8897)
= -$20,000+ $38,897
= $18,897
So here the investment should be make as the net present value comes in positive
Suppose that a firm is currently maximizing its short-run profit at an output of 50 units. If the current price is $9, the marginal cost of the 50th unit is $9, and the average total cost of producing 50 units is $4, what is the firm's profit
Answer:
$250
Explanation:
Profit = Total revenue - Total cost
Profit = ($9*50 units) - ($4*50 units)
Profit = $450 - $200
Profit = $250
Thus, the firm's profit will be $250.
Olinick Corporation is considering a project that would require an investment of $343,000 and would last for 8 years. The incremental annual revenues and expenses generated by the project during those 8 years would be as follows (Ignore income taxes.): Sales $ 227,000 Variable expenses 52,000 Contribution margin 175,000 Fixed expenses: Salaries 27,000 Rents 41,000 Depreciation 40,000 Total fixed expenses 108,000 Net operating income $ 67,000 The scrap value of the project's assets at the end of the project would be $23,000. The cash inflows occur evenly throughout the year. The payback period of the project is closest to:
Answer:
3.21 years
Explanation:
Annual net cash-flow = Operating net income + Depreciation
Annual net cash-flow = $67,000 + $40,000
Annual net cash-flow = $107,000
Payback period = Investment / Annual net cash-flow
Payback period = $343,000/$107,000
Payback period = 3.205607476635514
Payback period = 3.21 years.
So, he payback period of the project is closest to 3.21 years.
You bought Sumsung stock for $50 on April 1. The stock paid a dividend of $5 on July 1, and had a price of $53. It is now Oct. 1, and the stock price is $52. Treasury bills yield 1%.
Required:
a. What was the arithmetic average quarterly return?
b. What was the standard deviation of quarterly returns?
Answer:
a. 7.05%
b. 12.7%
Explanation:
a. The returns are:
First return July 1 = (Current price - Previous price + Dividend) / Cost price
= (53 - 50 + 5) / 50
= 16%
Second return Oct 1 = (52 - 53) / 53
= -1.9%
Arithmetic mean = (16 + (-1.9%)) / 2
= 7.05%
b. Variance = ((16% - 7.05%)² + (-1.9% - 7.05%)²)
= 160.205%
Standard deviation = √160.205
= 12.7%

Your total lottery winnings are actually worth ______________ more than the same amount as less than $20,000 to you today.
Answer:
Your total lottery winnings are actually worth __$10,000____________ more than the same amount as less than $20,000 to you today.
Explanation:
My total worth today is $ 10,000
My present worth today is less than $20,000 by $10,000
Hence, the lottery amount is more than by amount X which is equal to the difference between $20,000 and My total worth in present times
$20,000 - $10,000 = $10,000

Sanders Co. is planning to finance an expansion of its operations by borrowing $51,500. City Bank has agreed to loan Sanders the funds. Sanders has two repayment options: (1) to issue a note with the principal due in 10 years and with interest payable annually or (2) to issue a note to repay $5,150 of the principal each year along with the annual interest based on the unpaid principal balance. Assume the interest rate is 8 percent for each option.
Required:
a. What amount of interest will Sanders pay in Year 1 under option 1 and under option 2?
b. What amount of interest will Sanders pay in Year 2 under option 1 and under option 2?
Answer:
A. Year 1 Option 1 $4,120
Year 1 Option 2 $4,120
B. Year 2 Option 1 $4,120
Year 2 Option 2 $3,708
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine What amount of interest will Sanders pay in Year 1 under option 1 and under option 2
Year 1:
Option 1 − annual interest only=$51,500 × 8%
Option 1 − annual interest only= $4,120
Option 2 − annual interest
Option 2 − annual interest =$51,500 × 8
Option 2 − annual interest = $4,120
Therefore amount of interest will Sanders pay in Year 1 under option 1 and under option 2 is :
Year 1 Option 1 $4,120
Year 1 Option 2 $4,120
B. Calculation to determine What amount of interest will Sanders pay in Year 2 under option 1 and under option 2
Year 2
Option 1 − annual interest only=$150,000 × 8%
Option 1 − annual interest only= $4,120
Option 2 − annual interest and $5,150 on principal:
Original principal $51,500
Less: Payment at end of year one ($5,150)
Balance of principal for year two $46,350
Option 2 − annual interest= $46,350 × 8%
Option 2 − annual interest= $3,708
Therefore amount of interest will Sanders pay in Year 2 under option 1 and under option 2 is :
Year 2 Option 1 $4,120
Year 2 Option 2 $3,708
An individual works downtown and pays $600 per month in rent for an apartment located 10 miles from her office. She has calculated that she spends 30 minutes per day driving each way to the office and it costs her $4 per day in gas and lost productivity. Using the framework of the bid-rent model, how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment downtown, assuming a 20 workday month?
a. $440.
b. $680.
c. $520.
d. $80.
Answer:
b. $680
Explanation:
Calculation to determine how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment downtown, assuming a 20 workday month
First step to determine the Cost of commuting using this formula
Cost of commuting = Cost of gas and productivity × 20 workday month
Let plug in the formula
Cost of commuting =$4*20
Cost of commuting =$80
Now let determine how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment
Using this formula
Amount willing to pay= Total rent + Cost of commuting
Let plug in the formula
Amount willing to pay= $600 + $80
Amount willing to pay= $680
Therefore how much would she be willing to pay for an apartment downtown, assuming a 20 workday month is $680
Suppose the production of long-distance airline flights is described by a fixed proportion production process in which three crew members (i.e., labor) are required for each aircraft (i.e., capital). If the airline operates with four crew members per plane, then we know that:
Answer:
production at this point is technically inefficient.
Explanation:
Efficient production processes requires a producer to either minimise the inputs they are using at a given output or maximise output level at a given input level.
Technical inefficiency is when input is not minimised or output maximised.
In the given instance the fixed cost (airplane) remains unchanged. However crew members can be variable.
If the airplane only requires 3 crew members and 4 crew members are now used, the company is not minimising inputs used so they are technically inefficient.

Do you think that MTV’s future lies mostly in its international operations? Explain your
Five individuals organized Miami Music Corporation on January 1. At the end of January 31, the following monthly financial data are available:
Total Revenues…………………………....... $131,000
Operating Expenses………………………… 90,500
Cash…………………………………………...........30,800
Accounts Receivable……………………… .25,300
Supplies……………………………………..........40,700
Accounts Payable…………………………... 25,700
Common Stock………………………………...30,600
Required:
a. Did Miami Music Corporation generate a profit? Which financial statement indicates this?
c. Does Miami Music Corporation have sufficient resources to pay its liabilities? Which financial statement indicates this?
Answer:
a. Profit(loss) = Total revenue - Total expenses
= 131,000 - 90,500
= $41,000
The company did in fact generate profit of $41,000 and this can be shown from the Income Statement which is where profit or loss is calculated.
b. A company uses its assets to pay off its liabilities so if the liabilities are less than the assets then the company is capable of paying off its liabilities:
Assets = Cash + Accounts Receivable + Supplies
= 30,800 + 25,300 + 40,700
= $96,800
Liabilities are just the Accounts Payable of $25,700.
Liabilities are less than Assets so Miami Music does indeed have sufficient resources to pay its liabilities.
This information comes from the Balance Sheet which is where assets and liabilities are shown.

If the price of product L increases, then how will the demand curve for the close-substitute product J shift? If X is a normal good, will an increase in money income shift the supply or demand curve and in which direction?
Answer:
demand curve for product J would shift rightwards or outwards
If X is a normal good, an increase in income would shift the demand curve rightwards or outwards
Explanation:
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.
If the price of product L increases, the quantity demanded of product L declines. this is line with the law of demand
According to the law of demand, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.
Consumers would then shift to the consumption of the close substitute. As a result, there would be an increase in the demand for product J. This would lead to a rightward or outward shift of the demand curve for product J
Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls
Since X is a normal good, when income increases, the demand for good X increases. this would shift the demand curve outward
Which of the following is true of public goods? Question 9 options: a) The market mechanism helps to signal the quantity that is demanded by the public. b) The public sector is guided to produce the correct quantity by market prices. c) Consumption by one person does not preclude consumption of the same good by another person. d) Payment for consumption is efficiently provided by market prices.
Answer:
c
Explanation:
A public good is a good that is non excludable and non rivalrous.

Park Corporation is planning to issue bonds with a face value of $790,000 and a coupon rate of 7.5 percent. The bonds mature in 6 years and pay interest semiannually every June 30 and December 31. All of the bonds were sold on January 1 of this year. Park uses the effective-interest amortization method and also uses a discount account. Assume an annual market rate of interest of 8.5 percent. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your final answer to whole dollars.)Required: 1. Prepare the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)2. Prepare the journal entry to record the interest payment on June 30 of this year. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)3. What bond payable amount will Park report on its June 30 balance sheet? (Enter all amounts with a positive sign.)
Answer:
Journal Entry to record issuance of bond:-
First of all, we need to calculate the issue price of the bonds.
Semi Annual Stated Coupon Interest = face Value 790,000 x Coupon Rate 7.5% * 1/2half yearly = $29,625
Semiannual period to maturity (n) = 6 years x 2 = 12
Semi Annual Market Interest Rate (R) = 8.5%*1/2 = 4.25%
Present Value of Bonds (Price of the bonds issued) = Semi-Annual Coupon Interest x PVIFA (R, n) + Face Value x PVIF (R, n)
= (29,625*9.25039) + (790,000*0.60686)
= 274,042.80 + 479,419.40
= $753,462
Calculation of Present Value Factor:-
PVIFA (R, n) = Present Value interest factor for ordinary annuity at R% for n periods = (1 – 1/(1+R)n) / R
PVIFA (4.25%, 12) = (1 – 1/(1+0.0425)12) / 0.0425 = 9.25039
PVIF (R, n) = Present Value interest factor for ‘n’ period at ‘R’% = 1/(1+R)n
PVIF (4.25%, 12) = 1/(1+0.0425)12= 0.60686
Explanation:

Besides the normal prejudices that exist in society, these two groups also have the highest average education level (i.e. more college years)
