With regard to consideration in a sales contract, the UCC differs from the common law in that:_______
A) terms of a sales contract may be modified without additional consideration.
B) consideration is not required in sales contracts
C) terms in a sales contract may be modified as long as additional consideration is provided.
D) consideration exchanged must be equal or very closely equal in sales contracts.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) terms of a sales contract may be modified without additional consideration.

Explanation:

Generally speaking, common law applies to everybody in an equal manner, i.e. the law is the same for everyone. While UCC rules vary depending if the parties involved are merchants or not. UCC has two standards, one that applies to merchants and another one that applies to everyone else.

Common law applies to all contracts that are not covered by UCC rules. UCC rules only apply to the sale of goods and this doesn't include money or securities. Under UCC rules, new consideration is not a requirement to modify an existing contract. E.g. a buyer places an order for 3,000 units, but the seller only has 2,000 units available. The seller can send the 2,000 units and if the buyer accepts them, a new contract is formed.

An increase in taxes when the economy is above full employment ​ ______ aggregate demand and real​ GDP, and the price level​ ______.

Answers

Question options :

A. increases; falls

B. decreases; falls

C. does not change; does not change

D. increases; rises

Answer:

B. decreases; falls

Explanation:

let us understand this by looking at the logic behind it. First when the economy is at full employment, there is high demand since there will be increase in money supply through increased circulation from salaries and wages. If government increases taxes, this will reduce purchasing power as money supply will be reduced and therefore demand will be reduced. Also price will fall since according to the Law of demand and supply, if demand is more than supply, price will increase

The stock in Bowie Enterprises has a beta of .87. The expected return on the market is 11.70 percent and the risk-free rate is 2.89 percent. What is the required return on the company's stock

Answers

Answer:

10.55%

Explanation:

The stock in Bowie's enterprise has a beta of 0.87

The expected return on the market is 11.70%

The risk free rate is 2.89%

Therefore, the required return on the company stock can be calculated as follows

= 2.89%+0.87(11.70%-2.89%)

= 2.89%+10.179%-2.5143%

= 2.89%+7.6647%

= 10.55%

Hence the required return on the company's stock is 10.55%

Answer: C. Colombia has an absolute advantage producing coffee, and Cuba has an absolute advantage producing oranges

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Colombia spends 2 hours producing coffee and 6 hours producing oranges, and Cuba spends 3 hours producing coffee and 1 hour producing oranges.

Since Columbia spends a lesser time producing coffee and Cuba spends a lesser time producing oranges, it means that Colombia has an absolute advantage producing coffee, and Cuba has an absolute advantage producing oranges.

An increase in costs incurred when filing for bankruptcy. c. An increase in the personal tax rate. d. The Federal Reserve tightens interest rates in an effort to fight inflation. e. An increase in the corporate tax rate.

Answers

Answer:

Option e: An increase in the corporate tax rate

Explanation:

Corporate income tax rate is used to know how much people are willing to invest their new capital and also where they will place that new capital.

An increase in it is likely to encourage a company to use more debt in its capital structure.

The lower the corporate tax rate, the more it drives or leads to growth in capital stock, wages, jobs and others while the higer(increase) in corporate income tax rate, the more it affects economic decisions.

An Increase in a company's debt ratio will therefore lead to an increase in the marginal cost of both debt and equity financing. Also this action may lower the company's WACC

Assume that the current ratio for Arch Company is 2.5, its acid-test ratio is 2.0, and its working capital is $390,000. Answer each of the following questions independently, always referring to the original information. Required: a. How much does the firm have in current liabilities? (Round your final answer to nearest whole dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

Current liabilities = 260,000

Explanation:

Given:

Current ratio = 2.5

Working capital = $390,000

Find:

Current liabilities

Computation:

Working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities

$390,000 = Current assets - Current liabilities

Current assets = Current liabilities + $390,000

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

2.5 = [Current liabilities + $390,000] / Current liabilities

2.5 Current liabilities = Current liabilities + $390,000

Current liabilities = 260,000

has a target debt−equity ratio of .50. Its cost of equity is 15 percent, and its cost of debt is 6 percent. If the tax rate is 34 percent, what is the company’s WACC?

Answers

Answer:

11.35%

Explanation:

The calculation of WACC is shown below:-

WACC = Cost of equity × (equity ÷ (Debt + Equity)) +  cost of debt × (debt ÷ (Debt + Equity)) × (1 - tax rate)

= 0.15 × (1 ÷ 1.50) + 0.06 × (0.50 ÷ 1.50) × (1 - 0.34)

= 0.15 × 0.67 + 0.06 × 0.33 × 0.66

= 0.1005 + 0.013068

= 11.35%

Therefore for computing the WACC we simply applied the above formula.

A common stock pays an annual dividend per share of $1.80. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the risk premium for this stock is 4%. If the annual dividend is expected to remain at $1.80 per share, what is the value of the stock

Answers

Answer:

The value of the stock today is $20

Explanation:

Using the CAPM equation, we first calculate the required rate of retunr on the stock.

The equation for CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterpM is the risk premium on marketBeta * rpM is the risk premium on stock

r = 0.05 + 0.04

r = 0.09 or 9%

The value of the stock can be calculated using the zero growth model of DDM. The DDM values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. As the dividend from the stock is expected to remain constant through out to an indefinite period, the value of the stock today is,

P0 = Dividend / r

P0 = 1.8 / 0.09

P0 = $20

Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 20X3. During 20X3, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 was $40,000. What amount of interest cost should Cole capitalize

Answers

Answer: $40,000

Explanation:

When capitalizing Interest for a PPE, accounting procedure is that one looks at the actual interests incurred vs the interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the PPE and then pick the lower of the two for capitalization.

The actual interest incurred is;

= 50,000 + 20,000

= $70,000

The Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 20X3 = $40,000. This is the lower one and so will be the amount capitalized.

Dairy Wishes, a local ice cream store, finds
that it sells out of ice cream sandwiches at the current price of $1. It raises the price to increase its
revenues and finds that no one buys ice cream sandwiches anymore
The demand for icecream sandwiches is
a. inelastic.
b. elastic.
c. perfectly inelastic.
d. perfectly elastic.
e. unitary elastic.

Answers

Answer:

d. perfectly elastic.

Explanation:

Demand is perfectly elastic if it at the current price, the product is sold out but if there is a change in price demand falls to zero. the demand curve is horizontal

Demand in perfectly inelastic if there is no change in quantity demanded regardless of the 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.  

Suppose the rate of inflation was 2 percent in India from 2008-2012 and, over that same period, the inflation rate in the United States was 2.7 percent. Based on these inflation trends, which of the following is true?

a. The PPP condition implies that the rupee has depreciated relative to the dollar.
b. The PPP condition implies that the rupee has appreciated relative to the dollar

Answers

Answer:

b. The PPP condition implies that the rupee has appreciated relative to the dollar

Explanation:

Remember, the inflation rate looks at how the prices of goods and services in a country increases over a period of time, and it's effects on the the purchasing value or power of money in the country.

As in this scenario, India had 2 percent inflation rate while United States had 2.7 which is a higher price increases not in a different period but the same one, meaning that the Purchasing power parity (PPP) condition of the rupee has appreciated relative to the dollar from 2008-2012.

Coronado Industries is planning to sell 900 boxes of ceramic tile, with production estimated at 470 boxes during May. Each box of tile requires 44 pounds of clay mix and a 0.25 hour of direct labor. Clay mix costs $0.40 per pound and employees of the company are paid $22 per hour. Manufacturing overhead is applied at a rate of 110% of direct labor costs. Coronado has 4700 pounds of clay mix in beginning inventory and wants to have 3900 pounds in ending inventory. What is the total amount to be budgeted in pounds for direct materials to be purchased for the month

Answers

Answer:

Total pounds= 19,880

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 470 boxes

Each box of tile requires 44 pounds of clay mix

Beginning inventory= 4,700 pounds

Desired ending inventory= 3,900 pounds

To calculate the direct material purchase, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Direct material budget (in pounds):

Production= 470*44= 20,680

Desired ending inventory= 3,900

Beginning inventory= (4,700)

Total pounds= 19,880

{ ∑Tₙ is total time required to complete all the units which is 600 hrs, T₁ is Time for first unit, total time factor = 2.946 }

we substitute

∑T₄ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

600 = ∑T₁ × 2.946

∑T₁  = 600/2.946

∑T₁  = 203.666 minutes

Now to get the total time required to complete 6 units, we say:

∑T₆ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

Note that total time factor at this point changes;

( from the learning curve coefficient table, total time factor to complete 6 units at 75% learning curve is 3.934)

so we substitute

∑T₆ = 203.666 × 3.934

∑T₆ = 801.222

Now to find how long should it take them to finish the last two units, we say

∑Tₓ = ∑T₆ - ∑T₄

∑Tₓ = 801.222 - 600

∑Tₓ = 201.222

Therefore time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

The time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

Given data

Total time required to four units is 600 hours

Learning curve applied is 75% and 75% learning curve is 2.946

∑Tₙ = T₁ × total time factor

{ ∑Tₙ is total time required to complete all the units which is 600 hrs, T₁ is Time for first unit, total time factor = 2.946 }

we substitute

∑T₄ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

600 = ∑T₁ × 2.946

∑T₁  = 600/2.946

∑T₁  = 203.666 minutes

Now to get the total time required to complete 6 units, we say:

∑T₆ = ∑T₁ × total time factor

so we substitute

∑T₆ = 203.666 × 3.934

∑T₆ = 801.222

Now, we will find how long should it take them to finish the last two units

∑Tₓ = ∑T₆ - ∑T₄

∑Tₓ = 801.222 - 600

∑Tₓ = 201.222

In conclusion, the time required to complete the last two units is 201.222 minutes

It will cost $3,000 to acquire a small ice cream cart. Cart sales are expected to be $1,400 a year for three years. After the three years, the cart is expected to be worthless as that is the expected remaining life of the cooling system. What is the payback period of the ice cream cart?

Answers

Answer:

2.14 years

Explanation:

Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows

Payback period =  Amount invested / cash flows = $3,000 / $1,400 = 2.14 years

The present value of the gift is LOWER (BY $45.35) if you get engaged in two years than it is if you get engaged in one year.

Explanation:

to determine future value:

future value = present value x (1 + interest rate)ⁿ

to determine present value:

present value = future value / (1 + interest rate)ⁿ

Yan Yan Corp. has a $5,000 par value bond outstanding with a coupon rate of 4.6 percent paid semiannually and 21 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.1 percent.

What is the price of the bond?

Answers

Answer:

Price of the bond = $4,122.36

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The value of bond for Yan Yan Corp.  be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

Semi annul interest payment  

= 4.6% × 5,000 × 1/2 = 115

Semi-annual yield = 4.1%/2 = 2.05  % per six months  

Total period to maturity (in months)   = (2 × 21) = 41 periods

PV of interest =  

115  × (1- (1+0.0205)^(-21)/0.0205)=1,946.47

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value  

= 5000 × (1.0205^(-41)   = 2,175.89

Step 3:Price of the bond

Total present Value = 1,946.47  +  2,175.89  = 4,122.36

Price of the bond = $4,122.36

 

Let's say that you choose to buy bread in a grocery store. According to the marginal benefit and marginal cost principle, how many loaves of bread will you purchase if you know the following:

A loaf of bread costs $2.00. Each dollar is worth 100 utils to you (so $2 is worth 200 utils). The first loaf of bread gives you 400 utils of satisfaction. The second loaf of bread gives you 320 utils of satisfaction. The third loaf of bread gives you 280 utils of satisfaction. The fourth loaf of bread gives you 220 utils of satisfaction. The fifth loaf of bread gives you 160 utils of satisfaction. The sixth loaf of bread gives you 30 utils of satisfaction. The seventh loaf of bread gives you no more additional utils.

1. Four loaves.
2. One loaf.
3. Three loaves.
4. Two loaves.
5. Six loaves.
6. Five loaves.
7. Seven loaves.

Answers

Six is your answer because if it cost $2.00 and you have 4 it makes sense

It will be advisable to purchase six loaves of bread to derive the optimum amount of marginal utility upon consumption. Hence, option 6 is correct.

What is marginal utility?

The utility derived upon consumption of each additional unit of a product, given that other things remain constant, is known as the marginal utility derived.

It has been provided that the utility derived upon the consumption of seventh loaf will not derive further utility. And thus, six loaves derive optimum amount of utility for the consumer.

Hence, option 6 holds true regarding deriving the marginal utility.
