A consumer products company reported a 5.4 percent increase in sales from Year 1 to Year 2. Sales in Year 1 were $30,400. In Year 2, the company reported cost of goods sold in the amount of $10,407. What was the gross profit percentage in Year 2? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places (i.e. 0.1234 should be entered as 12.34).)
Answer:
The gross profit percentage in Year 2 is:
67.52%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Year 1 Year 2
Sales $30,400 $32,042
Cost of goods sold 10,407
Gross profit $21,635
b) Sales increased by 5.4% from year 1 to year 2 = $32,042 ($30,400 * 1.054)
c) Gross profit percentage for Year 2 = Gross profit/Sales * 100
= $21,635/$32,042 * 100
= 0.6752
= 67.52%
d) The gross profit percentage is also known as the gross margin percentage. It is expressed as the gross profit divided by sales, and then multiplied by 100. This ratio shows the percentage of sales value that is not consumed as part of the cost of goods sold. The gross profit is the first profit point. It is from this profit that period costs are deducted before arriving at the net income.

Industry experts believe blockchain is a technology that has the potential to affect the business of most IT professionals in the next five years. Pick an industry you feel will be most affected by blockchain and how blockchain may be used in that industry. As an IT manager, how would you embrace blockchain
Answer and Explanation:
I believe the banking industry will be the most affected by the blockchain technology. This is mostly because banks lie at the center of money and exchange transactions all over the world which is the purpose and crux of blockchain technology- easing payment and exchange globally. The blockchain technology can be harnessed to eliminate the pressure on banks in moving physical cash as cryptocurrencies are not physical money but are decentralized value exchanges represented using secure ledger systems over super cryptographic computer systems. Furthermore cryptocurriencies such as bitcoin amongst many others make transactions across borders easy and inexpensive. One could send and receive payment from his cryptocurrency in seconds without the need for a bank. As a result of the fear of going out of business and the huge potential of cryptocurriencies, banks are increasingly investing into cryptocurrencies now
As an IT manager, I would begin by weighing the potentials and future impact of blockchain technology. I would aim to understand fully how the blockchain technology affects my business and industry and how it will shape the tech industry in the near future, also what steps do I need to take to get a full grasp and harness all opportunities it offers

Answer:
Bob Katz and Sally Mander
Taxable Income for 2018:
= $78,200
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total wages = $102,400
Gain from sale of stock = 5,200
Interest income = 100
Total income = $107,700
less total deductions = (29,500)
Taxable Income = $78,200
b) Bob Katz and Sally Mander will have taxable income of $78,200 when the appropriate rate of tax is applied and the tax liability obtained, then the $1,500 tax credit will be deducted before arriving at the tax liability due.
c) The short-term capital gain of $5,200 is taxed as ordinary income. Since it is held for less than a year, it will be included in the taxable income for that year and it follows the same tax brackets as ordinary income. On the other hand, the long-term capital gain of $13,000 will attract a tax rate of 0 percent for a taxable income of $78,200. Otherwise, it will attract a tax rate of 15 percent or 20 percent, depending on income level. This means that long-term capital gains tax rates are much lower than the ordinary income tax rate.

All production costs have been steadily rising at Donner Company for several periods. In this environment, Donner Company’s cost of ending Work In Process inventory using the FIFO method would be: a. the same as that computed under the weighted average method. b. higher than that computed under the weighted average method. c. lower than that computed under the weighted average method.
Answer:
b. higher than that computed under the weighted average method.
Explanation:
FIFO uses inventory evaluation such that the ending inventory cosists of the most recent purchases. Therefore the ending inventory consists of only the highest priced units.
The weighted average method uses process in which all the units have been uniformly valued. Therefore the weighted average ending inventory consists of units priced lower than the FIFO ending inventory during constantly rising prices.
The weighted average inventory would consist of both low priced and high priced units that are averaged which automatically is lower than the most recent high priced units.

Your sister turned 35 today, and she is planning to save $7,000 per year for retirement, with the first deposit to be made one year from today. She will invest in a mutual fund that's expected to provide a return of 7.5% per year. She plans to retire 30 years from today, when she turns 65, and she expects to live for 25 years after retirement, to age 90. Under these assumptions, how much can she spend each year after she retires? Her first withdrawal will be made at the end of her first retirement year.
Answer:
$70,998.73
Explanation:
we must first determine the future value of her contributions using the future value of an annuity formula:
future value = contribution x annuity factor
contribution = $7,000
FV annuity factor, 7.5%, 30 periods = 103.3994
future value = $7,000 x 103.3994 = $723,795.80
in order to determine the distribution amount per year, we can use the present value of an annuity formula:
present value = distribution x annuity factor
present value = $723,795.80PV annuity factor, 7.5%, 20 periods = 10.19449$723,795.80 = distribution x 10.19449
distribution = $723,795.80 / 10.19449 = $70,998.73

Which of the following statements about a company’s strategy is true? Multiple Choice Crafting an excellent strategy is more important than executing it well. A company’s strategy deals with whether the revenue-cost-profit economics of its business model demonstrate the viability of the business enterprise as a whole. Strategy at its essence is about competing differently—doing what rival firms do not do or cannot do. Masterful strategies come partly (maybe mostly) by doing things in much the same way as the industry leader but then being better than the leader in one particular area that counts heavily with buyers. Whether a company’s strategy is ethical or not does not matter much because most customers and most suppliers are relatively unconcerned with whether a company they do business with engages in sleazy practices or turns a blind eye to below-board behavior on the part of its employees.
Answer:
A company’s strategy deals with whether the revenue-cost-profit economics of its business model demonstrate the viability of the business enterprise as a whole.
Explanation:
A company strategy is a business term that describes the view and set out paths into the future arrangement of a company, which focuses on the company's overall purposes, mission, and vision while considering the commodities to be produced, customers to serve, and the market to explore at large.
Hence, in this case, the statement about the company’s strategy that is true is "A company’s strategy deals with whether the revenue-cost-profit economics of its business model demonstrate the viability of the business enterprise as a whole."

In this particular example, the optimal two-part tariff is a per-unit price of $1 and a fixed fee of $29. But notice that with this pricing structure, the Low-type consumer will not purchase any units of the product! Why was it optimal for the firm to set a pricing structure that intentionally shut the low-type consumer out of the market
Answer:
The seller sets such high prices to increase his revenue. If he sets lower price, the revenue will also be less whereas high pricing will result in more revenue. Sellers sometimes set price as high as 800% above the cost. Though it discourages low type consumer but ensure high return by exploiting high paying capacity consumers. e.g. Apple (iPhone). Next it protects the seller from floating prices. Also by setting high price, sellers target high paying capacity consumers and increase their revenue manifold.

During 20X1, X Company manufactured equipment for its own use at a total cost of $2,400,000. The project required the entire year to complete and all costs were incurred uniformly throughout the year. At the beginning of the period, X was able to borrow $1,500,000 at 6% specifically for the purchase of materials and the manufacture of the equipment. The entire debt, with interest was repaid on December 31, 20X1, replaced with a long-term loan. Throughout 20X1, X Company had additional debt of $1,000,000 with a weighted average interest rate of 7%. If X Company capitalizes to the equipment the maximum amount of interest allowable under GAAP, how much will X report as interest expense in 20X1
Answer:
$88,000
Explanation:
The company's total interest expense for the year = ($1,500,000 x 6%) + ($1,000,000 x 7%) = $90,000 + $70,000 = $160,000
The company can capitalize the weighted average expenses times the interest rate of the specific loan for this project. Since the costs were paid uniformly during the year, the weighted average costs = $2,400,000 / 2 = $1,200,000. It can capitalize interests for up to $1,200,000 x 6% = $72,000.
Total interests - capitalized interests = $160,000 - $72,000 = $88,000

Using the the cash flow statement shown below: Changes in operating assets and liabilities: Accounts and notes receivable 15.2 (0.7) 61.8Inventories 93.6 46.8 212.8Other current assets (8.7) 5.3 2.5 Accounts payable, accrued expenses, income taxes payable and other 165.0 31.3 193.0How did inventory change during the most recent year? a. Inventory increased by 505 b. Inventory increased by 395 (505-900) c. Cannot be determined from the information provided d. Inventory decreased by 505
Answer: Inventory decreased by 93.6
Explanation:
When working with the Cash-flow statement, only increases (decreases) in inventory are subtracted (added) are added to the Cash balance and not the entire inventory amount.
The logic is that, if inventories increased then it means that the company spent cash on increasing inventory which would reduce the cash balance. The reverse is true.
If in the cash flow statement therefore, inventory is added to the cash balance instead of subtracted, it means that inventory decreased by the amount it is being added by.
The cashflow statement here shows an inventory addition of $93.6 so Inventory decreased by $93.6.

What is true of demand for a good that has many available substitutes?
Answer:
Demand for the good is relatively elastic
Explanation:
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of one another.
For example, there are different brands of jeans. These different brands serve the same purpose and be used interchangeably.
Goods with many substitutes usually have a relatively elastic demand.
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
The more elastic a good is, the more demand is sensitive to price changes
If the price of a good increases and it has many substitutes, consumers can easily shift to consuming a cheaper substitute

A 20% increase in sales causes EPS to rise from $4.00 to$6.50. Assuming the firm has no debt, what is its degree of operating leverage (DOL)?
A. 3.13 B. 2.25 C. 1.50 D. 1.57 E. 1.00
Answer:
A
Explanation:
DOL = Percentage change in EBIT / percentage change in sales
EPS = {(EBIT - Interest) × (1 - T) } / Shares
The firm has no debt, so interest would be zero
EPS = EBIT × (1 - T) / Shares.
Tax rate and number of outstanding shares remain unchanged.
Percentage Change in EPS = EBIT.
Percentage Change in EPS = (6.5 / 4) - 1 = 0.625 = 62.5%
EBIT = 62.5%
Percentage change in sales= 20%
DOL = 62.5% / 20% = 3.13
