Answer:
a) UNDER FIFO
November 1 Inventory 120 units at $39
November 10 Sale 90 units
COGS = 90 X $39 = $3,510remaining inventory = 30 x $39 = $1,170November 15 Purchase 140 units at $40
November 20 Sale 110 units
COGS = (30 x $39) + (80 x $40) = $1,170 + $3,200 = $4,370remaining inventory = 60 x $40 = $2,400November 24 Sale 45 units
COGS = 45 x $40 = $1,800remaining inventory = 15 x $40 = $600November 30 Purchase 160 units at $43
remaining inventory = $600 + (160 x $43) = $7,480b. UNDER LIFO
November 1 Inventory 120 units at $39
November 10 Sale 90 units
COGS = 90 X $39 = $3,510remaining inventory = 30 x $39 = $1,170November 15 Purchase 140 units at $40
November 20 Sale 110 units
COGS = 110 x $40 = $4,400 remaining inventory = (30 x $40) + (30 x $39) = $2,370November 24 Sale 45 units
COGS = (30 x $40) + (15 x $39) = $1,785remaining inventory = 15 x $39 = $585November 30 Purchase 160 units at $43
remaining inventory = $585 + (160 x $43) = $7,465Under LIFO, the ending inventory is lower than under FIFO.
"First in first out" or FIFO is a method of inventory evaluation by which the process of goods buying and selling are assumed as having same chronological order.
FIFOAs per the question, if units are in inventory at two different costs, than the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), and Inventory will be different, as per the given information:
⇒November 1, Inventory 120 units at $39
November 10, Sale 90 units
Cost of Goods Sold = 90 X $39 = $3,510
Remaining inventory = (120-90) x $39 = $1,170
⇒ November 15, Purchase 140 units at $40
November 20, Sale 110 units
Cost of Goods Sold = (30 x $39) + (80 x $40) = $1,170 + $3,200 = $4,370
Remaining inventory = 60 x $40 = $2,400
⇒ November 24, Sale 45 units
COGS = 45 x $40 = $1,800
Remaining inventory = 15 x $40 = $600
⇒November 30, Purchase 160 units at $43
Remaining inventory = $600 + (160 x $43) = $7,480
B. Under Last in, First Out (LIFO)
⇒November 1, Inventory 120 units at $39
November 10, Sale 90 units
COGS = 90 × $39 = $3,510
Remaining inventory = 30 x $39 = $1,170
⇒November 15, Purchase 140 units at $40
November 20, Sale 110 units
COGS = 110 x $40 = $4,400
Remaining inventory = (30 x $40) + (30 x $39) = $2,370
⇒November 24, Sale 45 units
COGS = (30 x $40) + (15 x $39) = $1,785
Remaining inventory = 15 x $39 = $585
⇒November 30, Purchase 160 units at $43
Remaining inventory = $585 + (160 x $43) = $7,465
Hence, the results shows that the Inventory is LOWER when used Last-in, First out Method.

company's perpetual preferred stock currently sells for $92.50 per share, and it pays an $8.00 annual dividend. If the company were to sell a new preferred issue, it would incur a flotation cost of 5.00% of the issue price. What is the firm's cost of preferred stock? Note: when flotation costs are given as a percentage instead of in dollar terms, the denominator in the formula changes from (P-F) to P*(1-F). Hint: remember that for preferred stock the growth rate of the dividend is zero.
Answer:
The firm's cost of preferred stock is 9.10%
Explanation:
The cost of preferred stock with the flotation of 5% would be the dividend payable by the preferred stock divided by the adjusted current market price(adjusted for flotation cost)
The dividend per year is $8
The adjusted price of the stock=$92.50*(1-f)
where f is the flotation cost in percentage terms i.e 5%
adjusted price of the stock is =$92.50*(1-5%)=$ 87.88
Cost of preferred stock=$8/$87.88*100 = 9.10%
Two mutually exclusive investment opportunities require an initial investment of $10 million. Investment A pays $1.5 million per year in perpetuity, while investment B pays $1.2 million in the first year, with cash flows increasing by 3% per year after that. At what cost of capital would an investor regard both opportunities as being equivalent?
Answer: 15%
Solving this would require finding the rate/cost of capital that gives both investments the same present value.
Investment 1
Investment 1 is a perpetuity which means that it's present value can be calculated as,
= Amount/rate
= 1,500,000/r
Investment 2
Investment 2 pays $1,200,000 in the first year and then grows at a rate of 3% every year afterwards.
The Present Value of such can be calculated with the following equation,
= Amount / ( rate/cost of capital - growth rate)
= 1,200,000 / ( r - 3%)
To find the Rate that gives both figures the same Present Value, simply equate them.
1,500,000/r = 1,200,000 / (r - 3%)
1,500,000(r - 3% ) = 1,200,000r
1,500,000r - 45,000 = 1,200,000r
300,000r = 45,000
r = 45,000/300,000
r= 0.15
r = 15%
At 15% an investor regard both opportunities as being equivalent.

Betty contributed land with a $6,000 basis and a $10,000 FMV to the ABC Partnership in Year 1. In Year 2, the land was distributed to Sally, another partner in the partnership. At the time of the distribution, the land had a $12,000 fair market value, and Sally had a $30,000 basis for her partnership interest. What gain is recognized by Betty on the distribution? What is Sally’s basis for the distributed land?
Answer:
a. Gain recognized by Betty on the distribution is $4,000.
b. Sally’s basis for the distributed land is therefore $10,000.
Explanation:
a. What gain is recognized by Betty on the distribution?
When an asset contributed by a partner to a partnership is distributed, the gain or loss to be recognized by the partner that contributed the asset is the difference between the fair market value (FMV) and the basis of the asset. Therefore, we have:
Gain recognized by Betty = FMV of the land - Basis of the land = $10,000 - $6,000 = $4,000
b. What is Sally’s basis for the distributed land?
When an asset of partnership is distributed to another partner in a partnership, the partner's basis for the distributed asset is the FMV of the distributed asset.
Since the FMV of the land contributed by Bettt but now distributed to Sally is $10,000, Sally’s basis for the distributed land is therefore $10,000.
On January 1, 20x1, the ABC Corporation purchased 80% of the XYZ Company's voting stock for $3,000,000. The FMV of all of XYZ's stock was $4,025,000, and XYZ's net assets had a book value of $2,850,000; the fair values of XYZ's assets are equal to their book values, with the exception of land, which is $625,000 greater than its book value. Assuming that ABC Corporation used the acquisition method to prepare its consolidated balance sheet, how much goodwill was reported on the January 1, 20X1 consolidated balance sheet assuming that the "full goodwill" method is used?
Answer: $440000
Explanation:
Fair market value = $4025000
Book value of asset = $2,850,000
Land value = $625,000
The value of the goodwill will be
(Fair market value - book of asset - land value) × 80%
= ($4,025,000 - $2,850,000 - $625,000) × 80%
= 550000 × 80%
= 550000 × 0.8
= $440,000
how all calculations: Palmer Inc. currently produces 110,000 units at a cost of $440,000. Next year Palmer Inc. expects to produce 115,000 units. Palmer’s relevant range is 100,000 to 120,000 units. If the cost is variable and 115,000 units are produced, the total cost _____. Group of answer choices will decrease will increase to $460,000 will stay the same will be indeterminate
Answer:
Will increase to $460,000
Explanation:
Palmer Inc. currently produces 110,000 units at the rate of $440,000
Next year they are expected to produce 115,000 units
Since the cost is variable, the total cost can be calculated as
(440,000/110,000) × 115,000
= 4×115,000
= $460,000
Hence the total cost is $460,000
Since the middle of the 20th century, the international global business system has been shaped by global institutions. Countries have established these institutions to address the global issues that span their borders. The functions of these organizations have been established in international treaties. International businesses need to be aware of the functions of these organizations as they can have a profound impact on trade and commerce.
It is critical for businesses to understand which organizations do what. It is also extremely useful to understand when these organizations were created since each emerged in response to changes, crises, or developments in the global business system. Identify the order in which these organizations were created.
a. GATT
b. Bretton Woods Institutions: IMF and the World Bank

1. Bretton Woods Institution: IMF and the Word Bank
2.United Nations
3. GATT
4. WTO
5. G20
Explanation:
The organizations mentioned above were created on the international forum, either to foster peace or economic growth among the nations involved. In the order in which they were created from first to last, we have;
1. Bretton Woods Institution: IMF and the World Bank- These were created on July 1944, by 43 countries in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, United States. They were established to rebuild the economy of nations after the World Wars by encouraging cooperation among the economic drivers of these nations.
2. United Nations- This organization was created on 24th October 1945. Its aim is to enhance and promote International Peace through its policies.
3. General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade- This is a legal understanding among several nations with the intention of reducing to reasonable extent, and if possible eliminating trade barriers such as tariffs. It was established on 30th October, 1947.
4. World Trade Organization- It was established with the intention of regulating trade among nations. It was established on 1st January, 1995.
5. G20- Short for Government of 20, this is a meeting meant for both the leaders as well as the Central Bank governors of about 19 countries, along with the European Union. It was established on 20th September, 1999.

What is the company’s financial position? Please refer to the income statement and balance sheet for the Exceptional Service Grading Company available here. Using the learning resources provided in the Reading Assignment, perform a financial ratio analysis of the company using the following ratios: • Gross profit margin • Current ratio • Debt ratio
Answer:
Gross profit margin requires revenue and gross profit of the company.
Current ratio = 1.386 x
Debt ratio = 0.123 x
Explanation:
Gross profit margin requires revenue and gross profit of the company which is provided in the question but it can be calculated using this formula ; Total revenue / gross profit . where Gross profit = Revenue - cost of goods sold
Current ratio is calculated using the formula ; current assets/ current liabilities lets assume the left column is for the most recent year then current ratio = 4612200/3325950 = 1.386x
Debt ratio is calculated using the formula ; total debts/total assets lets assume once more that the left column is the most recent year. note; total debts = long term + current notes payable = 454800 + 277550
therefore debt ratio = 732350 / 5957800 = 0.123x

As you negotiate with a potential employer, you ask for an additional $3,000 in annual salary. The employer asks why you why you want this increase, and learns that you need to begin repaying a student loan. The employer states that he cannot increase your salary, but that his company can assume your loan at a 0% interest rate. In this example, the employer has identified your . . .?
Answer:
Employer has identified your Interest.
Explanation:
During any course of negotiation, parties have two sets of interests to consider: personal interests and the interests of the other side (employer).
Interests are a party's underlying reasons, values or motivations. It explains why someone is trying to take a particular position.
From the question, an increase in salary by $3000 is needed to pay off student loan. This is the point of interest. The employer identifies this and offers to assume the loan at 0% interest rate instead.
The expense recognition principle indicates: Multiple Choice the ordering of current assets and current liabilities on the balance sheet. where expenses should be presented on the income statement. how expenses should be split between the income statement and the balance sheet. when costs are recognized as expenses on the income statement.
Answer:
when costs are recognized as expenses on the income statement.
Explanation:
The expense recognition principle is an accounting principle which is typically used on accrual basis accounts and it states that expenses incurred by an individual or business entity should be recognized and matched in the same period with respect to the revenues they are related to.
The expense recognition principle indicates when costs are recognized as expenses on the income statement.
For instance, company XYZ purchases a property worth $90,000 in June, it was then sold in July for $250,000. Based on the expense recognition principle, the $90,000 cost shouldn't be recognized by company XYZ as an expense until July, when the related revenue would be recognized also. Else, if recognized, its expenses would be overstated by $90,000 in June, and consequently understated to the tune of $250,000 in July.
Additionally, the expense recognition principle helps business owners to calculate their taxes and profits or losses properly.
Frances loves shopping for clothes, but considering the state of the economy, she has decided to start saving. At the end of each year, she will deposit $700 in her local bank, which pays her 9% annual interest. Frances decides that she will continue to do this for the next 5 years. Frances’s savings are an example of an annuity. How much will she save by the end of 5 years, rounded to the nearest whole dollar?
Answer:
Future Value= $4,189.30
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Investment= $700 annual
Interest rate= 9%
Frances decides that she will continue to do this for the next 5 years.
To calculate the final value, we need to use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {700*[(1.09^5)-1]} / 0.09
FV= $4,189.30
Walter, a single taxpayer, purchased a limited partnership interest in a tax shelter in 1993. He also acquired a rental house in 2019, which he actively manages. During 2019, Walter's share of the partnership's losses was $30,000, and his rental house generated $20,000 in losses. Walter's modified adjusted gross income before passive losses is $130,000.
A. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for rental house activities for 2017.B. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017.C. What may be done with the unused losses, if anything?
1. The unused losses may be carried.
2. tax years to reduce.
3. income in those years.
Answer:
A. $10,000
B. $0
C. The unused losses may be carried forward to future tax years to reduce passive income in those years.
Explanation:
A. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for rental house activities for 2017.
Excess of Walter's modified adjusted gross income before passive losses over $100,000 = $130,00 - $100,000 = $30,000
Allowable deductions = $25,000 - ($30,000 * 50%) = $10,000.
It should be noted that 50 cents, used as 50% above, for each dollar the tax payers modified adjusted gross income exceeds $100,000 is deducted from$25,000 to arrive at allowable deductions. However, there will not be allowable deduction in the case that the modified adjusted gross income is greater $150,000.
B. Calculate the amount of Walter's allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017.
Walter is eligible for allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017. Therefore, Walter's allowable deduction for the partnership losses for 2017 is $0.
C. What may be done with the unused losses, if anything?
1. The unused losses may be carried forward to future
2. tax years to reduce passive
3. income in those years.
Therefore, this can be joined together as follows:
The unused losses may be carried forward to future tax years to reduce passive income in those years.
Aston, a tenant in Jackie's apartment, had repeatedly complained about the leaky faucets in the apartment. However, Jackie was not interested in doing anything about it. Under the landlord and tenant law, what remedies did Aston have?
a. To terminate the lease, then seek damages or rent adjustment.
b. To seek constructive eviction.
c. To obtain a court order for quiet enjoyment.
d. To obtain the doctrine of caveat emptor under the common law.
e. None, because she was on a periodical tenancy.
Answer:
a. To terminate the lease, then seek damages or rent adjustment.
Explanation:
when a landlord breaches his/her duties, the tenant has three available remedies:
terminationdamages rent adjustmentGenerally when things like this happen, the tenant will terminate the contract and in order to do so must leave the premises and notify the landlord that he/she is doing so and the reasons why. Then the tenant can seek compensation for damages caused by the landlord's breach of duties. Damages are generally limited to relocation costs, e.g. costs of finding a new apartment and moving there.
If Aston decided to stay at the apartment, he could seek to fix the plumbing issues and seek compensation from the landlord.
Out of the possible options, option a is correct.
Identify the statement that is incorrect. Multiple Choice Higher financial leverage involves higher risk. Risk is higher if a company has more liabilities. Risk is higher if a company has more assets. The debt ratio is one measure of financial risk. Lower financial leverage involves lower risk.
Answer:
Risk is higher if a company has more assets.
Explanation:
All of the following statements are true and correct;
1. Higher financial leverage involves higher risk.
2. Risk is higher if a company has more liabilities.
3. The debt ratio is one measure of financial risk.
4. Lower financial leverage involves lower risk.
However, it is false and an absolutely incorrect to say risk is higher if a company has more assets.
A company having more assets would have a debt ratio less than one (1) because it has many assets to fund it's business. Thus, the company would have little or no debts and as such, it's risk portfolio is very low.
Hence, risk is lower if a company has more assets.
Although the "Great Recession" that began in late 2007 ended officially in the summer of 2009, the U.S. economy had staged only a modest recovery as we moved through the middle of 2015. Some economists have pointed out that this is typical of a _____________ recession.
Answer: balance sheet
Explanation: The modest recovery of the U.S. economy after the Great Recession has been described by economists as typical of a balance sheet recession which is characterized by great savings, reduction in debts by individuals or companies collectively, as opposed to spending or investing which serve as stimulants for economies. This is usually attributed to high levels of private sector debts and as a result, there is general economic decline or slow growth.

A decrease in operating expenses would have which of the following effects on a company's profit margin? Multiple Choice There is not enough information given to determine the effect. Net profit margin would increase. Net profit margin would decrease. Net profit margin would remain unchanged.
Answer: Net profit margin would increase.
Explanation:
A company's net profit margin is the Net Profit divided by Revenue. Net Profit is derived by subtracting some expenses and liabilities from the Revenue such as Cost of Goods as well as operating expenses.
If operating expenses were to reduce therefore, there would be less subtractions from the revenue. The would translate to a higher Net Profit and when that is then divided by the Revenue, it will give a higher Net Profit Margin.

In determining whether or not the project should be accepted ,we need to ascertain the Net Present value of the project which is present value of cash inflows of $13,000 for 35 years minus the initial investment of $125,374.60 committed today.
The annuity factor for 8% for 35 year horizon is 11.6546 using annuity table.
Present of cash inflow=cash inflow*annuity factor=$13,000*11.6546=$151,509.80
Net present value=$ 151,509.80-$125,374.60=$ 26,135.20
The investment has a positive NPV,hence should be accepted

California Surf Clothing Company issues 1,000 shares of $1 par value common stock at $32 per share. Later in the year, the company decides to Purchase 100 shares at a cost of $35 per share. Record the transaction if California Surf resells the 100 shares of treasury stock at $37 per share
Answer:
Debit= $3,700
Credit= $200
Credit= $3,500
Explanation:
The following transactions are recorded in California Surf clothing company
1) Cash debit is acquired through the reissuance of 100 shares of treasury stock at the rate of $37 per share
= $37 per share × 100 shares

The "Investment in Buisson, S.A.," on the balance sheet represents an investment in the stock of another company. The company's minimum required rate of return of 15%
Required:
1. Compute the company's average operating assets for last year
2. Compute the company's margin, turnover, and return on investment (ROl) for last year. (Round "Margin", "Turnover" and "ROI" to 2 decimal places.)
3. What was the company's residual income last year?
Answer:
1. $1,930,000
2. Margin = 15%
Turnover = $2.8
Return on investment = 42%
3. $521,100
Explanation:
1. The computation of average operating assets for last year is shown below:-
Average operating assets = (Beginning operating assets + Ending operating assets) ÷ 2
= ($2,562,000 - $399,000 - $253,000) + ($2,634,000 - $434,000 - $250,000) ÷ 2
= ($1,910,000 + $1,950,000) ÷ 2
= $3,860,000 ÷ 2
= $1,930,000
2. The computation of company's margin, turnover, and return on investment is shown below:-
Margin = Net operating income ÷ Sales
= $810,600 ÷ $5,404,000
= 15%
Turnover = Sales ÷ Average operating assets
= $5,404,000 ÷ $1,930,000
= $2.8
Return on investment = Margin × Turnover
= 15% × $2.8
= 42%
3. The computation of residual income last year is shown below:-
Residual income last year = Net operating income - Minimum required return
= $810,600 - ($1,930,000 × 15%)
= $810,600 - $289,500
= $521,100

Some countries have oil as a natural resource and bronze plate inc, based in illinois, is considering building a facility in one of those foreign countries since it does not have easy access to oil near its manufacturing plant. Which theory of foreign direct investment provides an explanation for this decision?
A) eclectic paradigm
B) infant industry argument
C) protectionism argument
D) product life cycle theory
E) new trade theory
Answer: A) eclectic paradigm
Explanation:
An Eclectic Paradigm is also called a OLI Framework which is an acronym that stands for Ownership, Location, Internationalization.
Companies use this theory in cost based analysis to determine if they can reduce costs by producing in house as opposed to from the market.
It is usually applied to the area of Foreign Direct Investment where companies use it to decide if it is better to invest in another country and have easier access to goods that it needs as opposed to buying it from the market. If it is shown that they stand to gain more from investing directly in another country, they will use this option.
This is the theory that Bronze Plate Inc wants to use.

the transaction carried out at the time that their client has paid the invoice given to him or her in the cost of the transaction.
Asset acquired =$200,000
Tax rate =20%
Hence:
$200,000×0.2
= $40,000
B.
Asset acquired = $200,000
Tax rate =32%
Hence:
$200,000×0.32
= $32,000

General Discussion Questions What should business leaders take away from this scandal? What could Wells Fargo have done differently to avert this cultural meltdown? Practice of Ethical Leadership Questions Modeling Character and Values: What values did Stumpf model to Wells Fargo employees? What impact might that have on the culture of Wells Fargo? Encouraging Ethical Conduct: What behaviors can leaders model in order to encourage ethical behavior in their organization? Designing Ethical Systems: Wells Fargo did have some systems in place, like the ethics hotline, to report unethical behavior, but it didn’t work. Why do you think that is? What steps can leaders take to design systems that encourage ethical behavior rather than unethical behavior?
Answer:
From this scandal, business leaders should learn to:
(a) not encourage unethical practices directly or indirectly among employees.
(b) not set unrealistic targets for employees to achieve within an unrealistic time-frame.
(c) Institute measures to prevent unethical practices.
(d) Encourage honest employees to grow in the company.
(e) Honor adherence to regulatory framework as applicable to the company.
Wells Fargo could have done differently in these manner:
(a) When the first incident of aggressive sales practice was reported in year 2004 with identified incidents from year 2002, they could have instituted measures to prevent recurrence of such incidents. Some of the practical and workable measures are enumerated in succeeding paragraphs.
(b) Convene a meeting of senior managers to provide them with appropriate guidelines so as not to repeat such incidents.
(c) Instruct senior managers to advise their juniors to refrain from any such aggressive sales practices.
(d) Investigate to determine the extent of impact of aggressive sales practices as on 2004 and take remedial actions against those who are engaged in such activities.
(e) Promote the whistle-blower method of instantaneous reporting of an incident by anyone who has witnessed such an incident.
(f) Reward employees having honesty, integrity and moral values.
Practice of Ethical Leadership Questions
CEO John Stumpf’s model was to aggressively cross-sell products by any means. While leading the bank in doing so, he had compromised on the minimum value system that any financial institution or any company must adhere to. The cultural impact that had on Wells Fargo is listed below:
(a) Employees were pressurized for resorting to unethical practices.
(b) Employees reporting matters on unethical practices were punished.
(c) The performance management/ measurement system, in effect, encouraged dishonesty in employees.
(d) The compensation system was skewed in favor of bonus.
(e) Since, the supervisors pressurized employees, the structural dishonesty within the organization was evident.
Leaders can encourage ethical behavior in their organization in the following manner:
(a) Demonstrate personal ethics in their words and actions.
(b) Instruct senior managers to strictly adhere to the ethical norms to be followed.
(c) Instruct senior managers to communicate company’s ethical agenda to the supervisors/ other junior employees within their departments/ sections.(d) Monitor adherence to / violation of ethical practices on a regular basis.(e) Institute immediate remedial measures to prevent recurrence of any unethical practice.
(f) Encourage employees to report incidents of unethical practices.
(g) Reward honest and hardworking employees.
Well Fargo’s system of ensuring Ethical System within the bank, such as ethics hotline to report unethical behavior did not work because, the top management, led by the CEO did not pay any importance to prevention of unethical practices. Rather, they steered in an organized and structured manner to promote unethical practices.
Leaders can take the following steps to design systems that encourage ethical behavior:
(a) The top leaders must “think ethics”, “speak ethics” and “act ethics”. This is the top most fundamental step in the direction of designing systems to encourage ethical behavior.
(b) Matters on “what is ethical and what is not ethical” must be circulated across the organization.
(c) Periodic briefing must take place from the top management to the junior most employees in a structured and organized manner.
(d) Encouragement on reporting (whistle-blowing) incidents of unethical practices must be given.
(e) System of rewarding honest and hardworking employees must be put in place.
How is each of the following likely to be affected by a recession:
a. the natural unemployment rate.
b. the cyclical unemployment rate.
c. the inflation rate.
d. the poll ratings of the president
Each of the following likely to be affected by a recession is the cyclical unemployment rate. The correct option is b.
What is a recession?The term "recession" is used in economics to describe the economic downturn brought on by a reduction in supply or demand. The production, employment, and income of domestic economies generally diminish, which in turn results in additional drops in demand and investment, lengthening the recessive process.
Because of this, when demand or production falls, the recession tends to last longer, deepen, and speed up, signaling that the affected nation's domestic economy will be in decline.
A recession is a time in the economy when growth is generally slow, yet inflation is also high. It is crucial that market forces operate independently, without interference from the government, in order to prevent a recession.
Therefore, the correct option is b. the cyclical unemployment rate.
