Since Ajax Computer company is an accrual method calender-year tax payer, the computer company would recognize the expenses only when such expenses are incurred and not at the time that cash is being paid for the the expenses
Ajax computer company already paid in advance for both advertisements the following year even though the advertisement eanst taking place that year. Therefore, the payments will not be considered to be an expense until advertisements has actually taken place. Because of this, Ajax cannot deduct the amounts paid for the advertisements next year and hence, no deduction will be claimed this year.
Rick is planning to invest the following amounts at 7 percent: $254 at the end of year 1, $412 at the end of year 2, and $1,230 at the end of year 3. How much money will he have saved at the end of year 3
Answer:
$1,961.65
Explanation:
The formula for finding future value :
FV = P (1+r)^n
P = Present value
R = interest rate
N = number of years
First step is to find the present value of the cash flows.
PV can be found using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 1 = $254
Cash flow in year 2 = $412
Cash flow in year 3 = $1,230
I = 7%
Present value = $1,601.29
I would now input the value of p in the FV formula
$1,601.29 ( 1 + 0.07) ^3 = $1,961.65
To find the PV using a financial calacutor:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
Chocolates R' Us, Inc is owned equally by Desi and his wife Lucy, each of whom hold 550 shares in the company. Lucy plans to reduce her ownership in the company, with the company planning to redeem 475 of her shares for $10,000 per share on December 31 of this year. Assume Desi and Lucy are not getting along and have separated due to marital discord, but are not legally separated. Because they no longer talk to each other, they communicate only through their accountant. Lucy wants to argue that she should not be treated as owning any of Desi's stock in Chocolates because of their hostility toward each other. Can family hostility be used as an argument to voice the family attribution rules?
Answer:
Chocolates R' Us, Inc.
Family hostility cannot be used as an argument to void the family attribution rules.
Lucy is still legally married to Desi. What the husband, Desi, therefore, owes, she owes equally despite their separation and her intention to reduce her ownership in their joint company.
Explanation:
Family Attribution Rules: Section 318 of the Internal Revenue Code says an individual shall be considered as owning the stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for his spouse and his children, grandchildren, and parents, including legally adopted children.

Answer: An effective Internal Control
Auditors must evaluate internal controls
Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board
Explanation:
The early part of the 21st century saw shocking financially improper activities by companies such as WorldCom and Enron exposed to the world. Investor Confidence was shaken and the government needed to do something to restore it.
This was why in 2002, the US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act that aimed to ensure that the actions of those companies were never repeated.
The act requires the following;
a) An effective Internal Control
The act requires that companies enact very effective Internal controls to detect financial irregularities and even went forward to make it the responsibility of the Top Executives to ensure that this is so.
b) Auditors must Evaluate Internal Controls.
Auditors had to change their auditing strategies that were deemed inefficient. They are now required to properly evaluate in-depth, the internal controls that a company adopts to be able to give an opinion on it and they do this based on the guidelines of the Public Accounting Board.
c) Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) was established by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with it's main purpose being to monitor and oversee auditors as they audit companies so that they may protect the public from false financial information. They set rules and standards that Auditors must follow and these rules in turn have to be approved by the Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC).
To ensure that the deeds of those corporations were never repeated, the US Congress created the Sarbanes-Oxley act in 2002:
An effective Internal Control.Auditors must evaluate internal controls.Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board.US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act, all financial reports must contain an Internal Controls Report demonstrating that the company's financial data is accurate and that sufficient controls are in place to protect it.
A yearly evaluation of internal controls by a third-party CPA firm to see how successful each one is. The auditor of a publicly traded firm must vouch for management's evaluation of internal controls and provide a report on it.
As a result, the significance of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires are the aforementioned.

Explanation:
bonds price = PV of face value + PV of coupons
PV of face value = $1,000,000 / 1.03²⁰ = $553,675.75
PV of coupon payments = $45,000 x 14.8775 (annuity factor 3%, 20 payments) = $669,487.50
issue price = $553,675.75 + $669,487.50 = $1,223,163.25 ≈ $1,223,163
Dr Cash 1,223,163
Cr Bonds payable 1,000,000
Cr Premium on bonds payable 223,163
amortization coupon 1 = $45,000 - ($1,223,163 x 3%) = $45,000 - $36,695 = $8,305
amortization coupon 2 = $45,000 - ($1,214,858 x 3%) = $45,000 - $36,446 = $8,554

Smiley Corporation wholesales repair products to equipment manufacturers. On April 1, Year 1, Smiley issued $1,400,000 of 5-year, 6% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 3%, receiving cash of $1,593,666. Interest is payable semiannually on April 1 and October 1.
Required:
a. Journalize the entries to record the following.
1. Issuance of bonds on April 1, Year 1.
2. First interest payment on October 1, Year 1, and amortization of bond premium for six months, using the straight-line method. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
b. Explain why the company was able to issue the bonds for $22,282,220 rather than for the face amount of $21,300,000.
Answer:
a. Journalize the entries to record the following.
1. Issuance of bonds on April 1, Year 1.
Dr Cash 1,593,666
Cr Bonds payable 1,400,000
Cr Premium on bonds payable 193,666
2. First interest payment on October 1, Year 1, and amortization of bond premium for six months, using the straight-line method. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
premium per coupon = $193,666 / 10 coupons = $19,366.60
Dr Interest expense 22,633.40
Dr Premium on bonds payable 19,366.60
Cr Cash 42,000
b. Explain why the company was able to issue the bonds for $1,593,666 (not $22,282,220) rather than for the face amount of $1,400,000 (not $21,300,000).
Since the bond's coupon rate was higher than the market rate, investors were willing to pay more for the bond (premium) than its face value. At $1,593,666, the actual returns will equal the returns of a $1,400,000 bond issued at market rate.
Suppose that Congress passes a law requiring employers to provide employees some benefit (such as healthcare) that raises the cost of an employee by $4 per hour. Assume that firms were not providing such benefits prior to the legislation. On the following graph, use the green line (triangle symbol) to show the effect this employer mandate has on the demand for labor.On the previous graph, use the purple line (diamond symbol) to show the effect this employer mandate has on the supply of labor. Suppose the wage is free to balance supply and demand. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium wage and level of employment before this law, and use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the equilibrium wage and level of employment after this law is implemented.
True or False: Employers and employees are made worse off by this law.
True False Suppose that, before the mandate, the wage in this market was $3 above the minimum wage. In this case, the employer mandate will decrease the equilibrium wage rate from $10 per hour to $6 per hour, causing employment to increase V and unemployment to decrease 'V' . Now suppose that workers do not value the mandated benefit at all. Which of the following statements are true under this circumstance?
1. The wage rate will decline by less than $4.
2. Employers are worse off than before the mandated benefit.
3. The equilibrium quantity of labor will decline.
4. The supply curve of labor doesn't shift at all.
5. Employees are worse off than before the mandated benefit.
Answer:
a. False
b. 1. The wage rate will decline by less than $4.
2.Employers are worse off than before the mandated benefit.
3. The equilibrium quantity of labor will decline.
4. The supply curve of labor doesn't shift at all
5. Employees are worse off than before the mandated benefit.
Explanation:
The Equilibrium wage and employment level are at the point where demand and supply curves intersect. The new law will cause the demand and supply curve to shift down. Employers and employees are not made worse off rather they are well off as before.
When the workers will not value the benefit as mandated in the law the supply curve will not shift down, the equilibrium quantity of labor will decline and wage rate will decline by less than $4. Employers are worse off than before because a greater total wage will be paid by employers plus benefit for few workers. This will result in greater total cost to employer.
The main cause of downsizing, refocusing, and outsourcing during the latter part of the 20th century was: Group of answer choices (a) Developments in IT—especially the advent of the internet (b) A more turbulent business environment Both (a) and (b) Neither (a) nor (b)
Answer: Both (a) and (b)
Explanation:
Developments in IT—especially the advent of the internet
The latter 20th century saw many technological changes as the world evolved in IT. Markets that were not previously accessible became more accessible and many new products were created and flourished. The internet brought markets and people together and there was an immense opportunity for growth and success. This forced companies to adapt to the new environment because failure to take advantage on the new opportunities that IT offered could spell doom. Companies responded by downsizing to take advantage of better production technologies that required less people, they refocused their strategies to enable higher productivity and with IT making the world so interconnected, they were able to outsource production to cheaper places knowing that they could maintain regular contact with such place. These are but a few reasons why.
A more turbulent business environment.
The latter 20th century also saw a wave of turbulence in the business world. With a rise in nationalistic feelings and conflict that made acquiring raw materials harder such as the oil crises of the '70s and the 80s. This as well as the presence of more companies which led to increased competition forced some companies to engage in actions necessary for survival. They had to downsize, refocus and sometimes outsource to remain profitable.

Charles is a stay-at-home parent who lives in New York City and teaches tennis lessons for extra cash. At a wage of $25 per hour, he is willing to teach 6 hours per week. At $35 per hour, he is willing to teach 16 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Teresa’s labor supply between the wages of $25 and $35 per hour is approximately _________ , which means that Teresa’s supply of labor over this wage range is _________
Answer:
2.75, elastic.
Explanation:
Measure labor supply elasticity of Individual T's as follows :
[tex]\bf Elasticity=\frac{Percent \;change\;in\;labour\;hr}{\frac{Average\;labour\;hour}{\frac{Percent\;change\;in\;wage\;price}{Average\;wage\;price} } }[/tex]
[tex]\bf =\frac{16-6}{\frac{16+6}{\frac{2}{\frac{35-25}{\frac{35+25}{2} } } } }[/tex]
[tex]\bf=\frac{10}{\frac{11}{\frac{10}{30} } }[/tex]
[tex]\bf=\frac{0.91}{0.33}[/tex]
[tex]=2.75[/tex]
Therefore, the elasticity of the labour supply of Individual T's is approx. of earnings per hour. 2.75, meaning that the work supply of Person T's is elastic across this wage range
A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 4.4%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are: Expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund (S) 14% 34% Bond fund (B) 5% 28% The correlation between the fund returns is 0.0214. What is the expected return and standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio of the two risky funds
Answer:
Explanation:
Expected Return stock fund ([tex]E_{rs[/tex]) = 14% = 0.14, Expected Return bond fund ([tex]E_{rb[/tex]) = 5% = 0.05, Standard Deviation stock fund ([tex]\sigma_s[/tex]) = 34% = 0.34, Standard Deviation bond fund ([tex]\sigma_b[/tex]) = 28% = 0.28, correlation (ρ) between the fund returns is 0.0214

Assume that the public in the small country of Sylvania does not hold any cash. Commercial banks, however, hold 10 percent of their checking deposits as excess reserves, regardless of the interest rate. In the questions that follow, the "money multiplier" is given by 1 / (RR + ER ).
Where
RR = the percentage of deposits that banks are required to keep as reserves
ER = the percentage of deposits that banks voluntarily hold as excess reserves
Consider the balance sheet of one of several identical banks:
Assets Liabilities and Net Worth
Reserves 400 Checking Deposits 2,000
Loans 1,600 Net Worth 0
Total Assets 2,000 Liabilities and Net Worth 2,000
The required reserve ratio in this economy is _________%. (Enter your response as an integer.)
If the total money stock (supply) is $600,000, the total amount of reserves held in the banking system is_____ $
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
(1) The required reserve ratio is
= Required reserves ÷ Checkable deposit
where,
Required reserves
= Total reserves - Excess reserves
= 400 - 2,000 × 10%
= $400 - $200
= $200
And, the checkable deposit is $2,000
So, the required reserve ratio is
= $200 ÷ $2,000
= 10%
(2) Now the total amount of reserves is
But before that first we have to determine the money multiplier is
Money multiplier (MM) = 1 ÷ (ER + RR)
= 1 ÷ (0.10 + 0.10)
= 1 ÷ 0.20
= 5
Now
Monetary base (MB) is
= Money stock ÷ Money multiplier
= $600,000 ÷ 5
= $120,000
And as we know that
Monetary base = Currency + Reserves, and Currency (i.e held by public) = 0
So,
Reserves = Monetary base = $120,000
Kela Corporation reports net income of $470,000 that includes depreciation expense of $83,000. Also, cash of $44,000 was borrowed on a 6-year note payable. Based on this data, total cash inflows from operating activities are: Multiple Choice $514,000. $553,000. $597,000. $387,000.

Explanation:
According to the given data, the Statement of Cash Flow from Operating Activities would be as follows:
Statement of Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Particulars Amount Total Amount
Income $470,000
Depreciation $83,000
Cash flow from operating activities $553,000
The cash of $44,000 was borrowed on a 6-year note payable. It is Financing Activity since note is long term
Therefore, total cash inflows from operating activities are $553,000
Oriole Distribution Co. has determined its December 31, 2020 inventory on a LIFO basis at $1007000. Information pertaining to that inventory follows: Estimated selling price $1050000 Estimated cost of disposal 43000 Normal profit margin 123000 Current replacement cost 927000 Oriole records losses that result from applying the lower-of-cost-or-market rule. At December 31, 2020, the loss that Oriole should recognize is
Answer:
At December 31, 2020, the loss that Oriole should recognize is $123,000
Explanation:
Given:
Estimated selling price = $ 1,050,000
Estimated cost of disposal = $43,000
Normal profit margin = $123,000
Current replacement cost = $927,000
Net realizable value of the inventory = Estimated selling price - Estimated cost of disposal
Net realizable value = $1,050,000 - $43,000 = $1,007,000
Replacement cost = $927,000
Net realizable value - Normal profit = $1,007,000 - $123,000 = $884,000
The replacement cost will be taken as the market value of the inventory because it is higher than the floor (net realizable value - normal profit) and lower than ceiling (net realizable value).
Cost of inventory = $1,007,000
Loss to be recognized using lower of cost or market rule = Cost - market value
= $1,007,000 - $884,000 = $123,000
gThe fact that flotation costs can be significant is justification for: maintaining a low dividend policy and rarely issuing extra dividends. a firm to issue larger dividends than their closest competitors. maintaining a high dividend policy. maintaining a constant dividend policy even when profits decline significantly. a firm to maintain a constant dividend policy even if they frequently have to issue new shares of stock to do so.
Answer:
Maintaining a low dividend policy and rarely issuing extra dividends.
Explanation:
This cost is said to be accumulated or generated by a company when dealing new security systems or organisation into the company. This happens in a registered or legal form of absorption of the said body. And this is been applied or shown in percentages during summation or analysis.
Many factors affect flotation which ranges from the type of issued securities, their size, and risks associated with the transaction. It is generally lower than those for issuing common shares. It is shown as the issuance of common shares typically ranges from 2% to 8%.
11. Which ones of the four examples below is an example of value-migration? a. No one buys typewriters anymore, but they buy PCs even to type. b. HP now produces laser printers that can accept emailed inputs as well. c. Honda used its expertise in small engines to enter the lawn-mower market d. Sony lost share in the video recorder market, but gained the camcorder market.
Answer:
a. No one buys typewriters anymore, but they buy PCs even to type.
Explanation:
Value migration can be described as the change in the value-creating forces due to the migration of value from products or business models that are outmoded to business designs that able to give better satisfaction to the priorities of customers.
Therefore, the correct option is "no one buys typewriters anymore, but they buy PCs even to type" because typewriters are outmoded while PCs are the new designs.

a. Reengineering
b. Business process innovation
c. Business process engineering
d. Downsizing or restructuring

Ben has two options this weekend. He could work at his job and earn $8 per hour for three hours, or he could go to an exhibit at the art museum for that three hours. A ticket for the event costs $30. What is the opportunity cost of the event?
Answer:
Opportunity cost= -$54
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
He could work at his job and earn $8 per hour for three hours, or he could go to an exhibit at the art museum for those three hours. A ticket for the event costs $30.
The opportunity cost is the "cost" of not taking other alternatives.
Opportunity cost= total revenue - economic profit
Opportunity cost= -30 - 24= -$54
Account A pays simple interest.
Future ValueA = Principal + Interest
= Principal + [(Principal x Interest Rate) x Investment Period]
= $2,000 + [($2,000 x 996) x 3 years]
Future Value of Account X Note: Account X pays compound interest.
Future Valuex = Present Value x Interest Rate Factor
= Present Valuex(1 +Interest Rate)n years
= $2,000 x (1 + 0.09)3
To find the interest rate factor, you can use three different ways, including multiplying it out:
Interest Factor(1 0.09) x (1 0.09) x (1 0.09)1.2950
Or using exponents and calculating it directly:
Interest Factor(10.09)31.2950
Or looking up the value in the Future Value Interest Factor Table:
Interest Factors
Periods 6% 7% 8% 9% 10 11
1 1.0600 1.0700 1.0800 1.0900 1.1000 1.1100
2 1.1236 1.1449 1.1664 1.1881 1.2100 1.2321
3 1.1910 1.2250 1.2597 1.2950 1.3310 1.3676
4 1.2625 1.3108 1.3605 1.4116 1.4641 1.5181
The fourth alternative for solving the equations is to let a financial calculator perform the calculation. This requires that you know how your calculator functions and how to enter the following variables:
P/ Y N I / YR PV FV
1 3 9 2,000
P/Y indicates the number of compounding periods per year, N is the number of years, I is the interest rate, PV is present value, and FV is future value.
Difference in Future Values
Difference = FVx_FVA
Answer:
Explanation:
Interest Factors
Periods 6% 7% 8% 9% 10% 11 %
1 1.0600 1.0700 1.0800 1.0900 1.1000 1.1100
2 1.1236 1.1449 1.1664 1.1881 1.2100 1.2321
3 1.1910 1.2250 1.2597 1.2950 1.3310 1.3676
4 1.2625 1.3108 1.3605 1.4116 1.4641 1.5181
1)
Future value paying simple interest = Principal + [( principal * interest) * investment period]
Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + [ ( $2,000 * 9%) * 3]
Future value paying simple interest = $2,000 + 540
Future value paying simple interest = $2,540
2)
Future value paying compound interest = Present value * ( 1 + interest)n
Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * ( 1 + 0.09)3
Future value paying compound interest = $2,000 * 1.295029
Future value paying compound interest = $2,590.058
3)
Difference = $2,590.058 - 2,540
Difference = $50.058
