Answer:
increase as the size of the tax increase, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax.
Explanation:
Taxation can be defined as the involuntary or compulsory fees levied on individuals or business entities by the government to generate revenues used for funding public institutions and activities.
The different types of tax include the following;
1. Income tax: a tax on the money made by workers in the state. This type of tax is paid by employees with respect to the amount of money they receive as their wages or salary.
2. Property tax: a tax based on the value of a person's home or business. It is mainly taxed on physical assets or properties such as land, building, cars, business, etc.
3. Sales tax: a tax that is a percent of the price of goods sold in retail stores. It is being paid by the consumers (buyers) of finished goods and services and then, transfered to the appropriate authorities by the seller.
Other things being equal (ceteris paribus), the deadweight loss (loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services) of a tax increase as the size of the tax increase, and the increase in the deadweight loss is more rapid than the increase in the size of the tax.
Holtzman Clothiers's stock currently sells for $38 a share. It just paid a dividend of $1.5 a share (i.e., D0 = $1.5). The dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4% a year.
Required:
a. What stock price is expected 1 year from now?
b. What is the required rate of return?
Answer:
b 6.87%
a 56.53
Explanation:
according to the constant dividend growth model
price = d1 / (r - g)
d1 = next dividend to be paid
r = cost of equity
g = growth rate
38 = (1.5 x 1.04) / (r - 0.04)
38 (r - 0.04) = 1.092
r - 0,04 = 0.0287
r = 6.87%
1.5 x (1.04^2) / 6.87 - 4 = 56.53

A company's Office Supplies account shows a beginning balance of $710 and an ending balance of $620. If office supplies expense for the year is $3,650, what amount of office supplies was purchased during the period?
Answer:
the amount of office supplies was purchased during the period is $3,560
Explanation:
The computation of the office supplies purchased is shown below:
office supplies expense for the period $3,650
add: ending balance of supplies $620
less: opening stock of supplies availed - $710
Office supplies purchased $3,560
Therefore the amount of office supplies was purchased during the period is $3,560
Red Co. recorded a right-of-use asset of $140,000 in a 10-year finance lease. Payments of $22,784 are made annually at the end of each year. The interest rate charged by the lessor and known by Red was 10%. The balance in the lease payable after two years will be: (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
Answer: $121554
Explanation:
Lease liability = $140,000
Less: Lease liability in 1st year= $8784
Lease payable after one year = $131216
Less: Lease liability in 2nd year = $9662.40
Lease payable after 2nd year = $121553.60 = $121554
Note:
Lease liability in 1st year:
= $22,784 - (10% × $140000)
= $22784 - $14000
= $8784
Lease liability in 2nd year:
= $22784 - (10% × $131216)
= $22784 - $13121.60
= $9662.40

From the standpoint of the issuing company, a disadvantage of using bonds as a means of long-term financing is that Group of answer choices bond interest is deductible for tax purposes. interest must be paid on a periodic basis regardless of earnings. income to stockholders may increase as a result of trading on the equity. the bondholders do not have voting rights.
Answer:
interest must be paid on a periodic basis regardless of earnings.
Explanation:
A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (investor or creditor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time. The bond issuer are expected to return the principal (face value) at maturity with an agreed upon interest (coupon), which are paid at fixed intervals.
The disadvantages of bonds are listed below as;
1. Bonds can decrease a person's return on equity.
2. Bonds require a payment of the principal amount.
3. Bonds typically require a payment of periodic interest.
Generally, most bonds with shorter maturity time respond less dramatically to changes in interest rates when compared to bonds having longer maturity. Thus, the risk associated with short bonds isn't really significant because their interest rates are less likely to change substantially within that short period of time unlike bonds with longer maturity.
Hence, regardless of the earnings by bondholders, interest must be paid on a periodic basis on a long-term bond.

c. The exponential smoothing forecast using = 0.2. appears to provide the better forecast based on MSE.
Explanation:
a. Develop the three-week moving average forecasts for this time series. Compute MSE and a forecast for week 7 (to 2 decimals if necessary).
Note: See Part a of the attached excel file for the Calculations of Forecast, Error, and Error^2.
From the attached excel file, we can have:
MSE = Mean squared error = Total of Error^2 / Number of observation under the Error^2 = 252.11 / 4 = 63.03
The forecast for week 7 = 15.33
b. Use = 0.2 to compute the exponential smoothing values for the time series. Compute MSE and a forecast for week 7.
Note: See Part b of the attached excel file for the Calculations of Forecast, Error, and Error^2.
From the attached excel file, we can have:
MSE = Mean squared error = Total of Error^2 / Number of observation under the Error^2 = 284.96 / 6 = 47.49
The forecast for week 7 = 16.35
Note that under exponential smoothing, forecast for week 2 has to be the Time Series Value for week 1.
b. Compare the three-week moving average forecast with the exponential smoothing forecast using = 0.2. Which appears to provide the better forecast based on MSE?
Since 47.49 MSE of the exponential smoothing forecast using = 0.2 is less than 63.03 MSE of the three-week moving average forecast, it implies that the exponential smoothing forecast using = 0.2. appears to provide the better forecast based on MSE.

In its 2016 annual report, Lockheed Martin reported net earnings of $5,302 million and dividends paid of $2,048 million. Your forecast of net income for Lockheed Martin for 2017 is $5,504 million. What are projected dividends for the company for 2017
Answer:
The dividend for 2017 will be = $2124.98
Explanation:
The net earnings for the year 2016 = $5302
Dividend paid for the year 2016 = $2048
The forecast for the income of 2017 = $5504
The projected dividend for the year 2017 = 5504 x (2047 / 5302)
The projected dividend for the year 2017 = 2124.98
The dividend for 2017 will be = $2124.98
Bermuda Cruises issues only common stock and coupon bonds. The firm has a debt–equity ratio of .73. The cost of equity is 11.5 percent and the pretax cost of debt is 6.6 percent. What is the capital structure weight of the firm's equity if the firm's tax rate is 39 percent?
Answer:
0.5780
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the capital structure weight of the firm's equity
Using this formula
Weight of equity = 1 / (1 + D-E)
Let plug in the formula
Weight of equity = 1 / (1 + .73)
Weight of equity = 1 / 1.73
Weight of equity = 0.5780
Therefore the capital structure weight of the firm's equity is 0.5780
Engler Company purchases a new delivery truck for $60,000. The sales taxes are $4,000. The logo of the company is painted on the side of the truck for $1,600. The truck license is $160. The truck undergoes safety testing for $290. What does Engler record as the cost of the new truck? Group of answer choices $66,050 $65,890 $64,000 $65,600
Answer: $65,890
Explanation:
When it comes to capitalizing fixed assets, every cost that was incurred to get the fixed asset ready for use will be included in the cost price.
The cost price here is therefore;
= Cost price + Sales taxes + Logo + safety testing
= 60,000 + 4,000 + 1,600 + 290
= $65,890
River co. just paid a dividend of $2 per share out of earnings of $4 per share. If its book value per share is $25 and its stock is currently selling for $40 per share, calculate the required rate of return on the stock.
Answer:
13.4%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the required rate of return on the stock.
First step
g = (1 - 0.5)(4/25)
g = 0.08*100
g = 8%
Now let determine the required rate of return
r = [(2 * 1.08)/40] + 0.08
r= 13.4%
Therefore the required rate of return on the stock is 13.4%

he following materials standards have been established for a particular product: Standard quantity per unit of output 4.2 meters Standard price $ 18.40 per meter The following data pertain to operations concerning the product for the last month: Actual materials purchased 7,200 meters Actual cost of materials purchased $ 138,600 Actual materials used in production 6,700 meters Actual output 1,550 units. What is the materials price variance for the month?
a. $3,658 U
b. $7,700 U
c. $11,770 U
d. $6,120 U
Answer:
d. $6,120 U
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the materials price variance for the month
Using this formula
Materials price variance = (AQ × AP) – (AQ × SP)
Let plug in the formula
Materials price variance = $138,600 – (7,200 meters × $18.40 per meter)

Ken's home has a replacement value of $200,000. Ken insured the home for $150,000 under an unendorsed Homeowners 3 policy. The roof of Ken's home was damaged by a windstorm. The replacement cost of the damaged roof is $16,000. The actual cash value of the loss is $12,000. How much will Ken receive from his insurer to settle this claim
Answer: $15,000
Explanation:
Using a Homeowners 3 policy, Ken will get the higher amount out of two amounts which are:
The actual cash value of the damaged area. An amount calculated as follows:= (Amount of Insurance cover on home / 80% of Replacement Cost) * Cost of Repair to damaged area.
The actual cash value is $12,000
The second amount is:
= (Amount of Insurance cover on home / 80% of Replacement Cost) * Cost of Repair to damaged area.
= 150,000 / (80% * 200,000) * 16,000
= 0.9375 * 16,000
= $15,000
Ken will receive the higher amount of $15,000.
Princess Cruise Company (PCC) purchased a ship from Mitsubishi Heavy Industry. PCC owes Mitsubishi Heavy Industry 500 million yen in one year. The current spot rate is 124 yen per dollar and the one-year forward rate is 110 yen per dollar. The annual interest rate is 5% in Japan and 8% in the U.S. PCC can also buy a one-year call option on yen at the strike price of $.0081 per yen for a premium of .014 cents per yen.
Required:
a. Compute the future dollar costs of meeting this obligation using the money market and forward hedges.
b. Assuming that the forward exchange rate is the best predictor of the future spot rate, compute the expected future dollar cost of meeting this obligation when the option hedge is used.
c. At what future spot rate do you think PCC may be indifferent between the option and forward hedge?
Answer:
Explanation:
a)
In the case of forwarding hedge:
The future dollar cost will be = FX receiveable ÷ Foward exchange rate
= 500 million yen ÷ 110 yen/dollar
= $4.55 million
For money market hedge:
Present value of yen payable = [tex]500 \ yen \div (1+ \dfrac{5}{100})[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{500 \ yen }{1.06}[/tex]
= 476.20 million yen
PCC would convert dollars to yens at the spot market rate and borrow yen such that it would get 500 million yen at maturity(i.e after one year) for Mitsubishi to receive it.
Dollars needed to get these yen = 476.30 yen ÷ 124 yen/dollar
= $3.84 million
Future Value of these dollars (for comparison with the foward market hedge) = $3.84 × (1 + 0.08)
= $4.15 million
Hence, the money market hedge is better as the dollar cost is lower than the forward market hedge to meet the obligation.
b)
On the maturity date, the spot rate is 110 yen/dollar
Ad the strike price = 0.0081 /dollar
It is better for the company to go for the strike price due to the fact that it has a lower rate than the spot rate.
Now;
The premium amount = 500000000 yen × 0.014 dollar / yen
= 70000 dollars
However; the Future dollar-cost payable = 500000000 yen × 0.0081 dollar /yen
= 4050000 dollars
By applying option hedge, the total dollar cost required to meet the obligation = (4050000 + 70000) dollars
= 4120000 dollars
c)
The dollar cost needed from the option hedge required to matching the forward hedge is determined by subtracting it from the premium amount:
Thus;
for option hedge, dollar cost needed = (4550000 - 70000) dollars
= 4480000 dollars
The required future spot rate = 500000000/4480000
= 111.61 yen/dollar
As a result, at the future spot rate of 111.61 yen/dollar, PCC will be unconcerned about and indifferent about the option or forward hedge because the future dollar cost of meeting the obligation will be the same.
Highsmith Rental Company purchased an apartment building early in 2021. There are 20 apartments in the building and each is furnished with major kitchen appliances. The company has decided to use the group depreciation method for the appliances. The following data are available:

Group life 5.02 years
Depreciation for 2016 $5,675
B. 2019
Dr Stove, refrigerator and dishwasher $2,700
Cr Cash $2,700
2019
Dr Accumulated Depreciation $1,300
Dr Cash $200
Cr Stove, refrigerator and dishwasher $1,500
Explanation:
A. Calculation to determine the group depreciation rate, group life, and depreciation for 2016.
First step is the Computation of Group depreciation rate, group life and depreciation for 2016
Assets Original Residual Depreciation Estimated Depreciation
Cost Value Cost Life-Years per year-SLM
Stoves $15,000-$3,000= $12,000 6 $2,000 ($12,000/6=$2,000)
Refrigerators $10,000-$1,000=$9,000 5 $1,800 ($9,000/5=$1,800)
Dishwashers $8,000-$500=$7,500 4 $1,875
($7,500/4=$1,875)
Total $33,000 $4,500 $28,500 $5,675
Now let determine the group depreciation rate, group life, and depreciation for 2016.
Calculation for group depreciation rate using this formula
Group Depreciation Rate = Total depreciation per year ÷ Total original cost
Let plug in the formula
Group depreciation rate = $5,675 ÷ $33,000*100
Group depreciation rate= 17.197%
Calculation for Group life using this formula
Group life = Total depreciation cost ÷ Total depreciation per year
Let plug in the formula
Group life = $28,500 ÷ $5,675
Group life = 5.02 years
Calculation for Depreciation for 2016 using this formula
Depreciation for 2016= Original Cost × Group Depreciation Rate
Let plug in the formula
Depreciation for 2016 = $33,000 × 0.17197
Depreciation for 2016= $5,675
Therefore the group depreciation rate is 17.197%, group life is 5.02 years, and depreciation for 2016 is $5,675
B. Preparation of the journal entries to record the purchase of the new refrigerators and the sale of the old refrigerators.

Dr Cash $200
Cr Stove, refrigerator and dishwasher $1,500
(To record sale of old refrigerator)
The political environment in India has proven to be critical to company performance for both PepsiCo and Coca-Cola India. What specifi c aspects of the political environment have played key roles?
Answer:
Explanation:
The political environment in India have played key role in company performance of PepsiCo and Coca-Cola India as follow:
- The Indian government viewed as unfriendly to foreign investors especially those who want to invest in other sectors apart from high tech sectors.
- Outside investment had been allowed only in high-tech sectors and was almost entirely prohibited in consumer goods sectors. The The “Principle of Indigenous Availability” (Policy banning imports being sold in India)

Jiminy’s Cricket Farm issued a bond with 25 years to maturity and a semiannual coupon rate of 4 percent 3 years ago. The bond currently sells for 108 percent of its face value. The company’s tax rate is 22 percent.
Answer:
Pretax cost of debt = 3.48%
Aftertax cost of debt = 2.71%
Explanation:
Missing word "What is the pretax cost of debt and aftertax cost of debt"
Coupon rate = 4%
YTM = 22
Nper = YTM*2 = 44
PMT = 1000*4%/2 = 20
FV = 1000
PV = 1080
Rate = rate(nper, pmt, -pv, fv)
Rate = rate(44, 20, -1080, 1000)
Rate = 0.0174
Rate = 1.74%
Pretax cost of debt = Rate * 2
Pretax cost of debt = 1.74% * 2
Pretax cost of debt = 3.48%
Aftertax cost of debt = [3.48% * (1 - 0.22)]
Aftertax cost of debt = 3.48% * 0.78
Aftertax cost of debt = 0.0348 * 0.78
Aftertax cost of debt = 0.027144
Aftertax cost of debt = 2.71%

Most labor economists believe that the supply of labor is a. less elastic than the demand, and, therefore, firms bear most of the burden of the payroll tax. b. more elastic than the demand, and, therefore, firms bear most of the burden of the payroll tax. c. more elastic than the demand, and, therefore, workers bear most of the burden of the payroll tax. d. less elastic than the demand, and, therefore, workers bear most of the burden of the payroll tax.
Answer:
d
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price.
The supply of labour usually exceeds the demand for labour. So, the supply of labour is less elastic. as a result workers bear the burden of tax
Economists in general believe that supply of labor is a. less elastic than the demand, and, therefore, firms bear most of the burden of the payroll tax.
Why is the supply of labor less elastic?Even when employees change the amount they pay people, there will still be others who don't mind working at the new rate.
Supply of labor therefore doesn't change much when rates are changed. This allows employers to pass on payroll tax easily to workers.
In conclusion, option A is correct.
