Calculate, to the nearest cent, the future value FV (in dollars) of an investment of $10,000 at the stated interest rate after the stated amount of time. 1% per year, compounded annually, after 11 years
Answer:
$11,046
Explanation:
Present value = $10,000
Interest rate = 1%
Years = 11 years annually
Future value = A(1 + i/)^n
Future value = $10,000*(1 + 0.01)^10
Future value = $10,000*(1.01)^10
Future value = $10,000*1.10462212541
Future value = $11046.2212541
Future value = $11,046
So, the future value FV of the investment after 11 years is $11,046
The Big Ideas: End of Chapter Problem As Nobel prize winner and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman has noted, the field of economics is a lot like the field of medicine: They are fields where knowledge is limited, and where many cures are quite painful, but where regular people care deeply about the issues. What are some other ways that economics and medicine are alike
Answer:
They are not perfect sciences. You are never 100% sure of the consequences and outcome of a remedy. Medicine is a practice and economics is also a practice.
Explanation:
Applied sciences are fields of study where there is use of existing knowledge for some practical purpose.
Exact or natural sciences on the other hand provide basis on which applied sciences are practices.
Medicine and economics are applied sciences because there is no 100% certainty of the consequences or outcome of a remedy.
Economics is a social science that analyses human behaviour that is assumed to be mostly rational. However it is not an exact science because lack of consensus on hypotheses, lack of testable hypotheses, and political polarisation amongst economists.
Medicine is also not an exact science but a practical application of the knowledge of treating illnesses. In practice the outcome of treatments are not always 100% sure
what are the problems encountered in dealing with the depreciation of non-current assets?
Answer:
The causes of depreciation are: Wear and tear. Any asset will gradually break down over a certain usage period, as parts wear out and need to be replaced. Other assets, such as buildings, can be repaired and upgraded for long periods of time. Non-current assets are usually valued by deducting the accumulated depreciation from the original purchase cost. For example, if a business bought a computer for $2100 two years ago, this is a non-current asset and it's subject to depreciation.
Explanation:
Kennedy is working two summer jobs, making $16 per hour lifeguarding and making $10 per hour walking dogs. In a given week, she can work a maximum of 13 total hours and must earn no less than $150. Also, she must work at least 8 hours lifeguarding. If x represents the number of hours lifeguarding and y represents the number of hours walking dogs, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Let x represent the 9number of hours spent by Kennedy lifeguarding and let y represent the number of hours spent by Kennedy walking dogs.
Given that Kennedy can work a maximum of 13 hours, hence:
x + y ≤ 13 (1)
Also, she makes $16 per hour lifeguarding and making $10 per hour walking dogs. She must earn no less than $150. Therefore:
16x + 10y ≥ 150 (2)
Lastly, she must work at least 8 hours lifeguarding.
x ≥ 8 (3)
Also, y > 0
The inequalities are plotted using geogebra online graphing calculator.

The RideEm Bicycles factory can produce 150 bicycles in a day at a total cost of $10,700. It can produce 170 bicycles in a day at a total cost of $11,500. What are the company's daily fixed costs (in dollars)
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
From the above, we can make c to be fixed cost, b cost of bicycle
C + 150b = 10,700 equation 1
C + 170b = 11,500 equation 2
From equation, we can make c the subject
C = 10,700 - 150b
Substitute for C in equation 2
10,700 - 150b + 170b = 11,500
-150b + 170b = 11,500 - 10,700
20b = 800
b = 40
We would also get the value for C
Substitute for C in equation 1
C + 150b = 10,700
C + 150(40) = 10,700
C + 6,000 = 10,700
C = 10,700 - 6,000
= -4,700
Therefore, the company's daily fixed cost is -$4,700
Mcdale Inc. produces and sells two products. Data concerning those products for the most recent month appear below: Product I49VProduct Z50U Sales$45,000 $50,000 Variable expenses$13,300 $28,500 The fixed expenses of the entire company were $38,990. The break-even point for the entire company is closest to: Multiple Choice $80,790 $69,625 $38,990 $46,110
Answer:The break-even point for the entire company is closest to $69,625
Explanation:
Contribution margin =Sales-Variable costs
For Product I49V
Contribution margin=$45,000 - 13,300=$31,700
Product Z50U
Contribution margin=$50,000 - $28,500 =$21,500
Total Contribution margin of the two products =$31,700+$21,500=$53,200
Total sales of the two products =$45,000 + $50,000 =$95,000
Total Contribution margin ratio =Total Contribution margin / Total Sales
=$53,200 /$95,000 = 0.56
Therefore total breakeven point=Fixed costs/Contribution margin ratio
=$38,990/0.56
=$69,625

Bonita Industries purchased a machine for $65600 on July 1, 2020. The company intends to depreciate it over 8 years using the double-declining balance method. Salvage value is $5100. Depreciation for 2020 to the closest dollar is:_________
a. $16400
b. $14350
c. $32800
d. $8200
Answer:
d. $8200
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense for the year 2020 is given below:
But before that the depreciation rate is
= 1 ÷ useful life × 2
= 1 ÷ 8 × 2
= 25%
Now the depreciation expense is
= Machine value × depreciation rate × given months ÷ total months
= $65,600 × 25% × 6 months ÷ 12 months
= $8,200

The computation of the total amount of current asset reported is as follows:
= Cash + account receivable + supplies + prepaid rent
= $53,000 + $15,000 + $8,800 + $36,000
= $112,800
Hence, the amount reported is $112,800
We simply added the above four items so that the current asset value could come
Machinery purchased for $64,200 by Sheridan Co. in 2016 was originally estimated to have a life of 8 years with a salvage value of $4,280 at the end of that time. Depreciation has been entered for 5 years on this basis. In 2021, it is determined that the total estimated life should be 10 years with a salvage value of $4,815 at the end of that time. Assume straight-line depreciation.
Required:
a. Prepare the entry to correct the prior year's depreciation, if necessary
b. Prepare the entry to record depreciation for 2015
Answer:
Sheridan Co.
a. It is not necessary to correct the prior year's depreciation. Depreciation is an accounting estimate and does not require the adjustment of prior year's accounts when there is a correction in its estimates.
b. Entry to record depreciation for 2021:
Debit Depreciation Expense $4,387
Credit Accumulated Depreciation $4,387
To record the depreciation expense for the year.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchase of machinery in 2016 = $64,200
Original estimated useful life = 8 years
Salvage value = $4,280
Depreciation amount = $59,920 ($64,200 - $4,280)
Depreciation expense per year = $7,490 ($59,920/8)
Accumulated depreciation for 5 years = $37,450
Net book value = $26,750 ($64,200 - $37,450)
Remaining estimated useful life = 5 years
Salvage value = $4,815
New depreciable amount = $21,935 ($26,750 - $4,815)
Depreciation expense per year = $4,387 ($21,935/5)
A company purchased $2,600 of merchandise on July 5 with terms 3/10, n/30. On July 7, it returned $600 worth of merchandise. On July 12, it paid the full amount due. Assuming the company uses a perpetual inventory system, and records purchases using the gross method, the correct journal entry to record the payment on July 12 is:
Answer:
No options presented but the entry below should be right.
$2,600 worth of merchandise was purchased but $600 was returned so Net accounts receivable:
= 2,600 - 600
= $2,000
Company paid the full amount on July 12 which is within the 10 days required for a discount so they get a 3% discount:
= 2,000 * ( 1 - 3%)
= $1,940
Date Account details Debit Credit
July 12 Accounts Payable $2,000
Cash $1,940
Merchandise inventory $60

Arkansas Corporation manufactures liquid chemicals A and B from a joint process. It allocates joint costs on the basis of sales value at split-off. Processing 4,600 gallons of product A and 1,000 gallons of product B to the split-off point costs $5,500. The sales value at split-off is $3.00 per gallon for product A and $32.20 for product B. Product B requires an additional separable process beyond split-off at a cost of $2.10 per gallon before it can be sold.Required: What is the company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B?
Answer:
The company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B is $7,131.25.
Explanation:
This can be calculatd as follows:
Product B share of joint cost = (Product B sales value / (Product B sales value + Product A sales value)) * Cost to split-off point = ($32.20 / ($32.20 + $3.00)) * $5,500 = 0.914772727272727 * $5,500 = 5,031.25
Product B total additional separable process beyond split-off = Additional cost per gallon * Number of gallons of product B produced = $2.10 * 1,000 = $2,100
Therefore, we have:
Company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B = Product B share of joint cost + Product B total additional separable process beyond split-off = 5,031.25 + $2,100 = $7,131.25
Therefore, the company's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B is $7,131.25.
Oriole Company purchased a new machine on October 1, 2022, at a cost of $68,880. The company estimated that the machine has a salvage value of $5,940. The machine is expected to be used for 48,880 working hours during its 6-year life. Compute the depreciation expense under the straight-line method for 2022 and 2023, assuming a December 31 year-end. (Round answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.25.)
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense is shown below:-
As we know that
Depreciation expenses = (Machine value - Salvage value) ÷ Estimated useful life of assets
= ($68,880 - $5,940) ÷ 6
= $10,490
Now
Depreciation for 2022 is
= (Depreciation expenses × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $10,490 × 3 months ÷ 12 months
= $2,623
And Depreciation for 2023 is $10,490
Answer above has proper calculations, rounded wrong.
2022: 2,622.5
2023: 10,490

The Grays live in Clay County, which is adjacent to Jackson County. Although the retail stores in both counties are comparable, the Grays usually drive a few extra miles to shop in Jackson County. As to why the Grays might do this, consider the following: a. Clay County is in a different state than Jackson County. b. Clay County and Jackson County are in the same state.
Answer:
An ad-valorem tax is type of the tax applied the value of an underlying asset and this type of tax is imposed at the time of transaction.
There are following two situations:
a. CC is in different state than JC. If CC and JC are in different state, then Grays shops from JC in order to save sales tax. It is possible that in JC, sales tax rate is lower in comparison to CC. Therefore, JC must be in state which imposes lower sales tax.
b. CC and JC are in same state: if CC and JC are in same state the, surely CC imposes higher sale tax than JC because Gray used to shop from JC only.

Classical economists believed that: a discretionary fiscal policies were useful for dampening business cycle fluctuations. b monetary policy was not useful in fighting recessions. c rational expectations were held by most of the public. d potential GDP can be increased by expansionary fiscal policies. e short-run goals were more important than long-run goals.
Answer:
c rational expectations were held by most of the public.
Explanation:
Classical economists only focused on the long run goals. the problem is that Ricardo and Smith are still waiting for the long run to show up. Theoretically, classical economics are great, but they failed miserably in the real world. The problem is that it is based on the assumption that human beings are rational and that they will always act rationally, regardless of what is going on. For example, even if you are fired, classical economists say that your expenses should not decrease. But on the real world, if you are fired, the money you have decreases and so will your expenses.
The __________ perspective of management, which emerged from the Industrial Revolution, focuses on improving the efficiency, productivity, and output of employees, as well as the business as a whole
Answer:
classical or scientific
Explanation:
Classical or scientific management was developed by Frederick Taylor, Max Weber and Henri Fayol. It focused on material needs. Companies needed to improve profits by improving productivity and efficiency, while workers were supposed to be only motivated by the salary that they could earn. This theory has a lot of flaws, but you must remember that it was developed more than 100 years ago.

Answer:
Compound interest; interest.
Explanation:
Compound interest can be defined as the interest that the bank pays you on the principal plus on the interest that you earned the preceding year. Thus, it is simply calculated by adding an interest to the initial principal i.e compounding the interest rather than withdrawal.
Mathematically, compound interest is given by the formula;
[tex] A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]
Where;
A is the future value.
P is the principal or starting amount.
r is annual interest rate.
n is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year.
t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Discuss and highlight the main features of a Bill of Lading, types of Bill of Lading, and the purpose, usefulness and limitation of such bills in global trade and commerce.
A bill of lading (/ˈleɪdɪŋ/) (sometimes abbreviated as B/L or BOL) is a document issued by a carrier (or their agent) to acknowledge receipt of cargo for shipment. Although the term historically related only to carriage by sea, a bill of lading may today be used for any type of carriage of goods.[1] Bills of lading are one of three crucial documents used in international trade to ensure that exporters receive payment and importers receive the merchandise.[2] The other two documents are a policy of insurance and an invoice.[3] Whereas a bill of lading is negotiable, both a policy and an invoice are assignable. In international trade outside the United States, bills of lading are distinct from waybills in that the latter are not transferable and do not confer title. Nevertheless, the UK Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1992 grants "all rights of suit under the contract of carriage" to the lawful holder of a bill of lading, or to the consignee under a sea waybill or a ship's delivery order.

Bill of lading
A bill of lading must be transferable,[4][5] and serves three main functions:
it is a conclusive receipt,[6] i.e. an acknowledgement that the goods have been loaded;[7] and
it contains or evidences[8] the terms of the contract of carriage; and
it serves as a document of title to the goods,[9] subject to the nemo dat rule.
Typical export transaction use Incoterms terms such as CIF, FOB or FAS, requiring the exporter/shipper to deliver the goods to the ship, whether onboard or alongside. Nevertheless, the loading itself will usually be done by the carrier himself or by a third party stevedore.
Lok Co. reports net sales of $4,970,000 for Year 2 and $8,532,000 for Year 3. End-of-year balances for total assets are Year 1, $1,684,000; Year 2, $1,780,000; and Year 3, $1,949,000. (1) Compute Lok's total asset turnover for Year 2 and Year 3.
Answer:Assets turnover ratio Year 2 =2.87 times
Assets turnover ratio for Year 3 = 4.58times
Explanation:
The total assets turnover is calculated as = Net Sales / Average total assets
also,
Average total assets = (Beginning assets + Ending Assets) / 2
Average total assets for Year 2 = ($1,684,000 +$1,780,000)/ 2 =$1,732,000
Average total assets for Year 3 = ($1,780,000 + $1,949,000 )/2 =$1,864,500
Assets turnover ratio Year 2 =$4,970,000 / $1,732,000 = 2.87 times
Assets turnover ratio for Year 3 = $8,532,000 / $1,864,500 = 4.58times
Answer:
Total assets turnover - year 2 = 2.8695 times
Total assets turnover - year 3 = 4.5760 times
Explanation:
The total assets turnover is a measure used to assess the performance of businesses in terms of their efficiency to use their assets for generating sales. It calculates how much sale each dollar of asset is generating. The formula for total assets turnover is as follows,
Total assets turnover = Net Sales / Average total assets
Where,
Average total assets = (Total assets at start + Total assets at end) / 2
Total assets turnover - year 2 = 4970000 / [(1684000 + 1780000) / 2]
Total assets turnover - year 2 = 2.8695
Total assets turnover - year 3 = 8532000 / [(1780000 + 1949000) / 2]
Total assets turnover - year 3 = 4.5760
6. The British government has a consol bond outstanding paying £100 per year forever. Assume the current interest rate is 4% per year. a. What is the value of the bond immediately after a payment is made? (Answer: £2,500) b. What is the value of the bond immediately before a payment is made? (Answer: £2,600)
Answer:
A. £2,500
B. £2,600
Explanation:
a. Calculation for What is the value of the bond immediately after a payment is made
Present Value = 100/0.04
Present Value=£2,500
Therefore the value of the bond immediately after a payment is made is £2,500
b. Calculation for What is the value of the bond immediately before a payment is made
Present Value =£100 +£100/0.04
Present Value = £100+£2,500
Present Value = £2,600
Therefore the value of the bond immediately before a payment is made is £2,600
