Answer: $440,000
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the net cash flow from operating activities is $500,000, the net cash flow used for investing activities is (200,000) and that the net cash flow used for financing activities 150,000. We are further told that thirty percent of the cash flow used for investing activities was used to purchase property, plant, and equipment.
The free cash flow for 20Y7 will be:
= $500,000 - ($200,000 × 30%)
= $500,000 - ($200,000 × 0.3)
= $500,000 - $60,000
= $440,000

Gilberto Company currently manufactures 65,000 units per year of one of its crucial parts. Variable costs are $1.95 per unit, fixed costs related to making this part are $75,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $62,000 per year. Allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys the part. Gilberto is considering buying the part from a supplier for a quoted price of $3.25 per unit guaranteed for a three-year period. Calculate the total incremental cost of making 65,000 units. Incremental Costs to Make Relevant Relevant Total Amount per Fixed Costs Relevant Costs Unit Variable cost per unit $65,000.00 126,750 Fixed manufacturing costs Allocated fixed costs Total incremental cost to make 126,750
Answer:
Explanation:
cost of making in-house
Variable cost = 1.95 * 65,000 = 126,750
Related fixed cost = 75,000
Unavoidable fixed cost= 62,000
Total cost of manufacturing = 263,750.
cost of buying
Unit cost = 3.25*65,000 = 211,250
Unavoidable fixed cost = 62,000
Total cost of buying = 273,250 .
Cost of buying is higher than the cost of making
Incremental cost buying = 273,250-263,250 = 9,500
Recommendation
Gilberto should manufacture in - house instead of buying.

A company reports 2021 pretax accounting income of $66 million, but because of a single temporary difference, taxable income is only $35 million. No temporary differences existed at the beginning of the year, and the tax rate is 25%. Prepare the appropriate journal entry to record income taxes.
Answer:
Income tax expense $1,000,000 Dr.
Deferred tax liability $7,750,000 Dr.
To income tax payable $8,750,000 Cr.
Explanation:
Given the following :
Pretax accounting income = $66 mollion
TAXABLE INCOME = $35 million
Tax rate = 25%
Income tax payable:
Income tax rate × taxable income
25% × 35,000,000
= $8,750,000
Deferred tax liability :
(pretax income - taxable income) × tax rate
($66 - $35) million × 25%
$31,000,000 × 25%
= $7,750,000
Income tax expense :
Deferred tax + income tax payable
$(8,750,000 - 7,750,000)
= $1,000,000

Explanation:
Government in the sunshine Act is a United States Federal law that was passed in 1976 to increase transparency of government regarding information that should be available to the public. It was an amendment to the freedom of information act. The Government in the sunshine act of 1976 covered for transparency in meetings, deliberations, records and other official documents beingade available to the public.

Mason Company paid its annual property taxes of $240,000 on February 15, 20X9. Mason also anticipates that its annual repairs expense for 20X9 will be $1,200,000. This amount is usually incurred and paid in July and August when operations are shut down so that machinery and equipment can be repaired. What amount should Mason deduct for property taxes and repairs in each quarter for 20X9?
Answer:
$360,000 per quarter
Explanation:
we must allocate both property taxes and annual repairs expenses equally to each quarter:
total payments = property taxes + annual repairs = $240,000 + $1,200,000 = $1,440,000
allocation to each quarter = $1,440,000 / 4 quarters = $360,000 per quarter
Accrual accounting states that expenses must be recorded when they occur and not necessarily when they are associated with a cash outflow. Since both payments involve the whole year, they must be distributed equally in all 4 quarters.
You're reviewing the campaigns report in your Google Ads account to find out how effective your current ad campaign is. You're particularly interested in finding out how many people clicked each ad, even if the click didn't result in a sale. In which two columns of the campaign report will you see these metrics? (Choose two.)
Complete Question:
You’re reviewing the campaigns report in your Google Ads account to find out how effective your current ad campaign is. You’re particularly interested in finding out how many people clicked each ad, even if the click didn’t result in a sale. In which two columns of the campaign report will you see these metrics? (Choose two.)
Group of answer choices.
A. Conversion value/click
B. View-through conversions
C. All conversions
D. Assisted conversions
Answer:
B. View-through conversions
C. All conversions
Explanation:
In this scenario, you're reviewing the campaigns report in your Google Ads account so as to find out how effective your current ad campaign is. Since you're particularly interested in finding out how many people clicked each ad, even if the click didn't result in a sale.
Hence, the two columns of the campaign report where you will see these metrics are View-through conversions and All conversions.
Generally, in Google's Ads account the conversion column such as the "Conversion value/click" and "Assisted conversions" do not display the view-through conversion.
In order to find out how many people clicked each ad, you should navigate to the "View-through conversion" column and "All conversions" column of the campaign report in your Google Ads account.
The conversion column refers to the column which displays data about the number of conversions a user has received with respect to their conversion actions.
Additionally, view-through conversion displays information when a customer sees or views an ad (image or rich media) without clicking on it and later completes a conversion. Also, the all conversion provides a user with all the data or information about all the conversion actions.
The optimal capital structure: A) will vary over time as taxes and market conditions change. B) will remain constant over time unless the company changes its primary operations. C) will be the same for all companies within the same industry. D) places more emphasis on operations than on financing. E) is unaffected by changes in the financial markets.
Answer:
A) will vary over time as taxes and market conditions change.
Explanation:
The capital structure is a combination of the debt and equity and if this is the optimum capital structure so it would be the best combination. Also, the equity financing maximize the market value of the company while at the same time it reduced the cost of capital
Therefore it will vary with respect to the taxes and the change in the market conditions
Consider an industry that is made up of nine firms each with a market share (percent of sales) as follows: a. Firm A: 30% b. Firm B: 20% c. Firms C, D, and E: 10% each d. Firms F, G, H, and J: 5% each What is the value of the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index and how is the industry categorized?
Answer:
Herfindahl-Hirschman Index is 1400 and the industry is categorized as a competitive industry
Explanation:
The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index is a market indicator that is used to measure how competitive the companies or firms in an industry is. It tells whether the industry is highly competitive or monopolistic.
It is obtained by adding the square of the market share of all the firms in an industry. That is,
Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) = s1 + s2 + s3 +....... sn
(where s = market share of individual firms in an industry.)
From the question,
Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) = (30)² + (20)² + 10)² +(10)² + (10)²+ (5)²
+ (5)²+ (5)² + (5)²
= 600 + 400 + 100 +100 + 100 + 25 + 25 +
+ 25 + 25
= 1400
An industry with an Herfindahl-Hirschman Index of less than 1500 units is categorized as a COMPETITIVE INDUSTRY.
One with an index of between 1500 to 2500 is considered as moderately competitive.
While an industry with higher values of HHI tends towards a monopoly.
(1 point) A man invests his savings in two accounts, one paying 6% and the other paying 10% simple interest per year. He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky. His annual interest is $9086 dollars. How much did he invest at each rate
Answer:
$82436 is invested at 6% and $41218.2 is invested at 10%
Explanation:
We were told that a man invests his savings in two accounts,
Amount invested at 6 percent interest is ?
Amount invested at 10 percent interest is ?
Let us denote the amount invested at different percent as
X=the amount invested at 6%
Y is the amount invested at 10%
Then,
0.06X + 0.10Y = 9068
But from the question, we were told He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky which means
X = 2Y
0.06(2Y) + 0.10Y = 9068
0.12Y + 0.10Y = 9068
0.22Y = 9068
Y= 9068/0.22
Y=41218.2
Then if we substitute Y into equation above we have
X= 2×41218.2
X=82436
Therefore, $82436 is invested at 6% and $41218.2 is invested at 10%
Decreasing the number of stocks in a portfolio from 50 to 10 would likely ________________. A. increase the systematic risk of the portfolio B. increase the unsystematic risk of the portfolio C. increase the return of the portfolio D. decrease the variation in returns the investor faces in any one year
Answer:
Option B, Increase the unsystematic risk of the portfolio, is the right answer.
Explanation:
Option B is correct because unsystematic risk refers to the risk that can be reduced drastically by diversifying the investment or portfolio. A company can reduce such risk by investing in a large range of projects or in large companies. Therefore, if the diversification decreases, as we can see in the question that the stock portfolio decreased from 50 to 10 then the unsystematic risk will increase.

West Corp. issued 10-year bonds two years ago at a coupon rate of 8.1 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bonds currently sell for 102 percent of par value, what is the YTM? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
7.82%
Explanation:
Given the following :
Par value = 102%
Coupon rate = 8.1%
Period (n) = 10 years
Yield to maturity (YTM) =?
with a face value (F) of $1000
The current price (P) of bond will be:
102% * $1000 = (1.02 * $1000) = $1020
Annual coupon payment = $1000 * 8.1% = $1000 * 0.081 = $81
The YTM formula is given by:
YTM = [ C +( F - P) / n] / [(F + P) / 2)]
YTM= [(81 + (1000 - 1020) / 10] / [(1000 + 1020)/2)]
YTM = [(81 +(-20/10)] / (2020/2)
YTM = [(81 - 2) / 1010]
YTM = 79 / 1010
YTM = 0.078217
YTM =0.078217 * 100
YTM = 7.82%

You own 50 shares of Auto Corporation that you purchased for $30 a share. The stock is currently selling for $50 a share, and you placed a stop loss order at $45. If the stock price drops to $35 a share what is your return on this investment?
Answer: 50%
Explanation:
Purchasing price for each share = $30
Stop loss order placed at $45 for each share.
If the stock price drops to $35, the benefit earned = $ (45-30)= $15
Now, the return on this investment = (benefit earned) ÷(Purchasing price)x 100%
= (15)÷(30)x100%
= 0.5 x 100%
= 50%
So, your return on this investment = 50%

Martin and Sons (M and S) currently is an all equity firm with 64,000 shares of stock outstanding at a market price of $25 a share. The company's earnings before interest and taxes are $86,000. M and S has decided to add leverage to their financial operations by issuing $480,000 of debt with a 7% percent interest rate. This $480,000 will be used to repurchase shares of stock. You own 2,700 shares of M and S stock. You also loan out funds at a 7% percent rate of interest. How many of your shares of stock in M and S must you sell to offset the leverage that the firm is assuming
Answer:
810 stocks
Explanation:
M and S can repurchase $480,000 / $25 = 19,200 stocks
the number of shares that you need to sell to offset the firm's leverage = total amount of stocks that you own x (total stocks repurchased / total stocks outstanding before buyback) = 2,700 x (19,200 / 64,000) = 2,700 x 0.3 = 810 stocks
Since your goal is to offset the firm's new leverage, you have to sell a proportional amount of your stocks compared to the whole repurchase transaction.
