Answer:
$59,280
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Bond issue price = $1,650,000 * 0.96 = $1,584,000
Discount on bonds payable = $1,650,000 - $1,584,000 = $66,000
Annual amortization of discount on bonds payable = $66,000 / 10 = 6,600
Bond carrying value on January 2, 2017 = Bond issue price + (Annual discount on bonds payable * Number of years) = $1,584,000 + ($6,600 * 2) = $1,597,200
Value of $1,140,000 of bonds = ($1,597,200 / $1,650,000) * $1,140,000 = $1,103,520
Loss on recognized on redemption = ($1,140,000 * 102%) - $1,103,520 = $59,280

Also the fixed costs of the ending units is deducted in absorption costing where it is not deducted in variable costing.
One-year Treasury securities yield 4.15%. The market anticipates that 1 year from now, 1-year Treasury securities will yield 4.4%. If the pure expectations theory is correct, what is the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities
Answer:
The yield today for 2-year Treasury securities is 4.27%
Explanation:
In order to calculate the yield today for 2-year Treasury securities we would have to calculate the following formula:
2-year treasury yield = [(1 + 1-yr treasury yield) * (1 + 1-yr treasury yield, 1 year from now)]1/2 - 1
= [(1 + 0.0415) * (1 + 0.044)]∧1/2 - 1
= [1.0873]∧0.5 - 1
= 1.0427 - 1 = 0.0427, or 4.27%
The yield today for 2-year Treasury securities is 4.27%
The Holt fund has $500 million in assets, 80 million in debt and 15 million shares at the start of the year. At the end of the year, the fund has $600 million in assets, 40 million in debt and 16 million shares. During the year, investors received $0.80 in distributions per share. The total expense ratio is 0.4%, which is deducted at the end of the year. What is the rate of the return on the fund?
A. 38.54%
B. 27.32%
C. 35,14%
D. 25.81%
E. 34.79%
Answer:
B. 27.32%
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the Net asset value per share at the start and end of the year
NAV at the start of the year = ($500 million - $80 million) / 15 million shares = $28 per share
NAV at the end of the year = ($600 million - ( ($600 million x 0.004) + $40 million ) / 16 million shares = $34.85 per share
Return = (NAV at the end of the year - NAV at the start of the year + Distribution received) / NAV at the start of the year
Return = ( 34.85 - 28 + 0.8 ) / 28 = 0.2732 = 27.32%

The Converting Department of Osaka Napkin Company uses the average cost method and had 2,000 units in work in process that were 60% complete at the beginning of the period. During the period, 25,200 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 1,100 units in process that were 30% complete at the end of the period.
a. Determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs for the period.
b. Determine the number of equivalent units of production for the period.
Answer:
Equivalent Units
Material cost = 26,560
Conversion Cost= 25,540
Explanation:
We would assume the company uses weighted average method of valuation.
Under the weighted average method of valuation, to account for completed units, it is assumed that the entire degree of work required is done in the period under consideration. So there is no separation of the completed units into opening inventory and fully worked.
Equivalent units = Degree of completion (%) × Number of units
Material cost
Item Unit Equivalent unit
Completed 25,200 100% ×25200 = 25,200
Closing WIP 1,360 100%× 1,360 1360
Total equivalent units 26,560
Conversion Cost
Item Unit Equivalent unit
Completed 25,200 100% ×25200 = 25,200
Closing WIP 1,360 25%× 1,360 340
Total equivalent units
The Converting Department of Osaka Napkin Company uses the average cost method and had 2,000 units in work in process that were 60% complete at the beginning of the period.
A. To determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs for the period, let's calculate the total equivalent units of production.
Whole units at the beginning of the period = 2,000 unit
Units started and completed during the period = 25,200 units
Whole units in process at the end of the period = 1,100 units
Total whole units to be accounted for:
= Whole units at the beginning + Units started and completed during the period + Whole units in process at the end
= 2,000 units + 25,200 units + 1,100 units
= 28,300 units
B. To determine the number of equivalent units of production for the period, we need to consider the percentage of completion for the units in process at the beginning and the units in process at the end.
Equivalent units of production for units in process at the beginning:
= Whole units at the beginning × Percentage of completion at the beginning
= 2,000 units × 60%
= 1,200 equivalent units
Equivalent units of production for units in process at the end:
= Whole units in process at the end × Percentage of completion at the end
= 1,100 units × 30%
= 330 equivalent units
Total equivalent units of production for the period:
= Equivalent units of production for units in process at the beginning + Equivalent units of production for units in process at the end + Units started and completed during the period
= 1,200 equivalent units + 330 equivalent units + 25,200 units
= 26,730 equivalent units
Therefore, the number of equivalent units of production for the period is 26,730 units.

Can an object accelerate if it's moving with constant speed? Yup! Many people find this counter-intuitive at first because they forget that changes in the direction of motion of an object—even if the object is maintaining a constant speed—still count as acceleration.Acceleration is a change in velocity, either in its magnitude—i.e., speed—or in its direction, or both. In uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity changes constantly, so there is always an associated acceleration, even though the speed might be constant. You experience this acceleration yourself when you turn a corner in your car—if you hold the wheel steady during a turn and move at constant speed, you are in uniform circular motion. What you notice is a sideways acceleration because you and the car are changing direction. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this acceleration will become. In this section we'll examine the direction and magnitude of that acceleration.The figure below shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity, which points directly toward the center of rotation—the center of the circular path. This direction is shown with the vector diagram in the figure. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration
Martha was considering starting a new business. During her preliminary investigations, she incurred the following expenditures:
Salaries $22,000
Travel 18,000
Professional fees 13,000
Interest on a short-term note 4,000
Martha begins the business on July 1 of the current year. If Marth elects \SS 195 trearment, determine her startup expenditure deduction for the current year.
Answer:
$3,700
Explanation:
The computation of startup expenditure deduction for the current year is shown below:-
According to the section 195, the tax payer is eligible for an immediate deduction of startup expenditure or 5,000 decreased amount that exceeds $50,000
The amount left over of start up expense is eligible for amortization over 180 months starting from the month when the tax payer business started
Immediate deduction = $5,000 - Start up cost in excess of $50,000
= $5,000 - $3,000
= $2,000
The $3,000 come from
= $53,000 - $50,000
= $3,000
now,
Amortized deduction = ((Total start up cost - Immediate deduction) ÷ 180 months) × Total number of months from beginning July to ending December
= (($53,000 - $2,000) ÷ 180) × 6 months
= 283.33 × 6
= $1,700 approx
and
Start up cost = Salary expenses + Travel expenses + Professional fees
= $22,000 + $18,000 + $13,000
= $53,000
finally
Total deduction in the current year = Immediate deduction + Amortized deductions
= $2,000 + $1,700
= $3,700

After several months of using such variance reports, the owner has become frustrated. For example. she is quite confident that instructor wages were very tightly controlled in July. but the report shows an unfavorable variance. The planning budget was developed using the following formulas, where q is the number of lessons sold:

Required:
1. Should the owner feel frustrated with the variance reports? Explain.
2. Prepare a flexible budget performance report for the school for July.
3. Evaluate the school's performance for July.
Answer:
1. Should the owner feel frustrated with the variance reports?
Yes, because they were incomplete. Since the quantity of lessons is larger than the budgeted, you must prepare a flexible budget. The flexible budget shows that there exists a total unfavorable variance of $385. E.g. , regarding the pilots' salaries, there is a favorable variance in the flexible budget.
2. Prepare a flexible budget performance report for the school for July.
I used an excel spreadsheet to prepare a flexible budget and I attached it.
3. Evaluate the school's performance for July.
The school's performance is neither good or bad because it has higher revenues than estimated (even though it lowered its sales price), but their costs are also higher than budgeted. They are doing a good job at selling their lessons, but a bad job of keeping costs under control. The overall variance is not that significant, but it is still unfavorable. Their fuel expenses should be controlled since the largest unfavorable variance results from spending too much fuel.

Answer:
loan interest revenue for 2020 is $720
loan interest revenue for 2021 is $240
Explanation:
The loan interest revenue in the year 2020 is for 9 months out of the total loan tenure of twelve months:
interest revenue for 2020=$16,000*6%*9/12=$720.00
This would be debited to interest receivable and credited to interest revenue account.
interest revenue for 2021=$16,000*6%*3/12=$240.00
Answer:
The answer is $720 and $240
Explanation:
Solution
Recall that:
Rosewood company made a loan of =$16,000
One year note carried an interest of =6%
Now,
We solve for the amount of interest revenue that rosewood would report
Report is given below:
$16,000 * 6% * 9/12 = $720 Interest revenue in April to December, 2020
$16,000 * 6% * 3/12 = $240 interest revenue in January - March, 2021
Therefore the interest revenue for Rosewood report/feedback in 2020 and 2021 is $720 and $240 respectively.
Suppose subway ridership in New York City declined by 10 percent after a fare increase of 25 cents to $2.75. Using the midpoint method, an estimate of the price elasticity of demand for subway rides is . True or False: According to your estimate, the Transit Authority's revenue rises when the fare increases. True False
Answer: Elasticity is 1.05
False
Explanation:
The Price Elasticity of Demand which measures how demand for goods change in relation to a change in price is calculated by the following formula,
Elasticity of demand = % change in Quantity ÷ % change in Prices
The Midpoint method is a method of estimating price percentage change by dividing the change in price by the AVERAGE of the new price and the old price.
The average of the changes are,
= (2.75 + (2.75 - 0.25))/2
= (2.75 + 2.5)/2
= 2.625
The Midpoint method gives a chance in price of,
= (2.75 - 2.65 )/ 2.625
= 9.5%
The Elasticity is therefore,
= Elasticity of demand = % change in Quantity ÷ % change in Prices
= 10% / 9.5%
= 1.05
According to this, the Transit Authority's revenue will not rise when Fair increases because the Elasticity is quite close to 1. An elasticity of 1 means that when fares increase, people using trains decrease by almost the same amount so revenue remains the same.

The computation of the net income for the year is shown below:
As we know that
Return on assets = net income ÷ average assets
0.15 = net income ÷ ($810,000 + $945,000) ÷ 2
0.15 = net income ÷ $877,500
So, the net income is
= $877,500 × 0.15
= $131,625
hence, the net income for the year is $131,625
We simply applied the above formula

What percent of the educated workforce in the world can be found outside of the US?
O 75%
O 25%
O 50%
15%
Answer:
A. 75%
Explanation:
A workforce is a term used to describe the number of able people working for government, establishments, institutions and private companies etc in a society. Thus, educated workforce implies the number of educated able people that have the ability to work with respect to their academic discipline.
US has a high number of workforce and compensating packages for them. But when compared to other countries, over 75% of educated workforce exists outside of the United States of America.
Bond A pays $8,000 in 20 years. Bond B pays $8,000 in 10 years. (To keep things simple, assume these are zero-coupon bonds, which means the $8,000 is the only payment the bondholder receives.)
Suppose the interest rate is 7 percent.
Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is approximately_______ , and the value of Bond B is approximately_______ .
Now suppose the interest rate increases to 14 percent.
Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is now approximately_________ , and the value of Bond B is approximately________ . Comparing each bond's value at 7 percent versus 14 percent, Bond A's value decreases by a_______ percentage than Bond B's value. The value of a bond__________ when the interest rate increases, and bonds with a longer time to maturity are _________sensitive to changes in the interest rate.
Answer:
To find the value of bond, let's use the formula:
Value of bond = price of bond / (1 + interest rate)ⁿ
Here n represents number of years.
At 7% interest rate:
Value of bond A = [tex]\frac{8000}{(1+0.07)^2^0} = 2067.35[/tex]
Value of bond B = [tex]\frac{8000}{(1+0.07)^1^0} = 4066.79[/tex]
At 14% interest rate:
Value of bond A = [tex] = \frac{8000}{(1+0.14)^20} = 582.09 [/tex]
Value of bond B = [tex] = \frac{8000}{(1+0.14)^10} = 2157.95 [/tex]
The difference between bond A at 7% and 14%:
$582.09 - $2067.35 = -$1485.26
The difference between bond B at 7% and 14%:
$2157.95 - $4066.79 = -$1908.84
% decrease between bond A and B:
[tex] \frac{1908.84 - 1485.26}{1908.84} * 100 = 22.19 [/tex]
Therefore, from the above calculations, we have the following:
Suppose the interest rate is 7%, Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is approximately $2067.35, and the value of Bond B is approximately $4066.79 .
Now suppose the interest rate increases to 14 percent.
Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is now approximately $528.09 , and the value of Bond B is approximately $2157.95 .
Comparing each bond's value at 7 percent versus 14 percent, Bond A's value decreases by a 22.19 percentage than Bond B's value.
The value of a bond decreases when the interest rate increases, and bonds with a longer time to maturity are more sensitive to changes in the interest rate.
Suppose the income elasticity of demand is -0.5 for good X. This implies that a 5% decrease in income will cause the quantity demanded of good X to a. increase by 2.5%, and X is an inferior good. b. decrease by 2.5% and X is a normal good. c. increase by 10% and X is an inferior good. d. decrease by 10% and X is a normal good.
Answer:
a. increase by 2.5%, and X is an inferior good.
Explanation:
The income elasticity of demand is the ratio between the percentage change in demand and the percentage change in income.
The change in demand caused by a 5% decrease in income is:
[tex]-0.5=\frac{\%\ change\ demand}{\%\ change\ income} \\-0.5=\frac{D}{-5\%} \\D=+2.5\%[/tex]
Demand will increase by 2.5%. A good whose demand increases when consumer income decreases is called an inferior good.
Therefore, the answer is a. increase by 2.5%, and X is an inferior good.

The price of a European call option on a stock with a strike price of $50 is $6. The stock price is $51, the continuously compounded risk-free rate (all maturities) is 6% and the time to maturity is one year. A dividend of $1 is expected in six months. What is the price of a one-year European put option on the stock with a strike price of $50?
Answer:
$3.06
Explanation:
The put call parity shows the relationship between the price of European put options and European call options of the same strike price and expiry date.
Given that:
Strike price (K) = $50
Price (C) = $6
rate (r) = 6% = 0.06
Stock price (SO) = $51
Time (T) = 1 year
Dividend (D) = $1
The period of dividend (t) = 6 months = 0.5 years
The put call parity (P) is given by the equation:
[tex]P+SO=C+Ke^{-rT}\\P=C+Ke^{-rT}-SO[/tex]
The dividend present value = [tex]De^{-rt}=1e^{-0.06*0.5}=\$0.97[/tex]
[tex]P=C+Ke^{-rT}-SO\\P=6+50e^{-0.06*1}-(51-0.97)\\P=6+47.088-50.03\\P=\$3.06[/tex]
Canliss Mining Company borrowed money from a local bank. The note the company signed requires five annual installment payments of $10,500 beginning one year from today. The interest rate on the note is 5%.(FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) What amount did Canliss borrow
Answer:
The amount that Canliss borrowed is $45,459.51
Explanation:
The amount borrowed is the present value of $10,500 for five years using the discount factor applicable to each to each year as shown below
The formula for discount factor=1/(1+r)^n
r is the rate of interest on the loan which is 5%
n is the year relating to each cash flow ,for instance 1 for year one
present value of the loan=$10,500/(1+5%)^1+$10,500/(1+5%)^2+$10,500/(1+5%)^3+$10,500/(1+5%)^4+$10,500/(1+5%)^5=$45,459.51
A registered investment adviser lives in State X. The adviser does business with 1 client in State A and 1 client in State B. The adviser gives seminars about investing to groups of potential customers in State C. The adviser is required to register in:
Answer:
State X and C
Explanation:
Remember, the clients themselves stay in state A and B, not the investment advisor. According to the requirements of the law, the investment advisor is to register in the state where he gives seminars–State C, and the state in which he resides–X.
Laser World reports net income of $620,000. Depreciation expense is $47,000, accounts receivable increases $11,000, and accounts payable decreases $27,000. Calculate net cash flows from operating activities using the indirect method. (List cash outflows and any decrease in cash as negative amounts.)
Answer:
$629,000
Explanation:
The net cash flow from operating activities is the net income plus depreciation, minus the increase in accounts receivable as well as the decrease in accounts payable.
Net income is $620,000
depreciaton expense $47,000
Increase in accounts receivable ($11,000)
decrease in accounts payable ($27,000)
Net cash flow from operations $629,000
The increase in accounts receivable denies the business of additional cash,hence it is deducted ,the same applies to increase in accounts payable
Consumption (household sector) spending is the largest component of:_______
a. Aggregate output
b. Aggregate income
c. Aggregate employment
d. Aggregate supply
e. Aggregate demand
Answer:
a. Aggregate output
Explanation:
Aggregate output can also be referred to as GDP. Gross domestic product is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach:
GDP = Consumption spending + Investment spending by businesses + Government Spending + Net Export
Consumption spending usually represents 70% of aggregate output.
