An accurate description of privatization is that Multiple Choice it started in China in the early 1980s. it involves replacing a state-owned monopoly with a private monopoly. it is most successful whencountries adopt communism. when newly privatized firms are protected from foreign competition, they have little incentive to restructure their operations to become more efficient. in today's context, a country runs the risk of experiencing a serious economic crisis if it liberalizes and privatizes state-owned enterprises.
Answer: When newly privatized firms are protected from foreign competition, they have little incentive to restructure their operations to become more efficient.
Explanation:
Privatization of state owned companies refers to the process of making them private firms that are owned by other parties apart from the Government.
This is usually done to the improve efficiency of the company as state owned firms can be inefficient resulting from being a monopoly.
If firms that are newly privatized are protected from foreign competition, the company would just become a private monopoly so they will not have any incentive to restructure their operations to become more efficient thereby defeating the whole point of making them efficient in the first place.
Although appealing to more refined tastes, art as a collectible has not always performed so profitably. Assume that in 2015, an auction house sold a statute at auction for a price of $10,521,500. Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it in 2009 at a price of $12,567,500. What was his annual rate of return on this sculpture? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
His annual rate of return = $2,046,000/$12,567,500 * 100 = -16.28%
Explanation:
The sculpture yielded a negative rate of return as it decreased in value over the 6-year period from $12,567,500 to $10,521,500. This represents a total negative return of $2,046,000 ($12,567,500 - $10,521,500). When this negative return is expressed in percentage terms, it gives a negative 16.28%. This percentage shows by how much the sculpture has decreased in value.
Requirement 3. The owner has been considering ways to increase the sales volume. The owner thinks that 10,000 pizzas could be sold per month by cutting the selling price per pizza from $6.25 to $5.75. How much extra profit (above the current level) would be generated if the selling price were to be decreased? (Hint: Find the restaurant's current monthly profit and compare it to the restaurant's projected monthly profit at the new sales price and volume.) Identify the profit formula and compute the monthly profit at the current and the new volume.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the extra profit above the current level is shown below:
Volume New 10,000 units Old 7,500 units
Selling Price $57,500 $46,875
(10,000 × $5.75) (7,500 × $6.25)
Less:
Variable cost at $1.55 ($15,500) ($11,625)
(10,000 × $1.55) (7,500 × $1.55)
Less:
Fixed Cost ($12,000) ($12,000)
Profit $30,000 $23,250
As it can be seen that there is an extra profit of $6,750
= $30,000 - $23,250
= $6,750
So, the company should able to reduce the selling price per unit at 10,000 units
Here profit formula is
Profit = Sales - variable cost - fixed cost
A $36,000 cash gift was received by a college during the year. In which fund should the gift be recorded if there were no restrictions on the use of the cash? In which fund should the gift be recorded if the donor specified that the cash was to be used to replace obsolete and damaged equipment?
Answer: Temporary Restricted Fund
Explanation:
A temporary restricted fund is a type of fund that not-for-profits like colleges have that include cash that was donated to them for a specific purpose. It is also time-bound and therefore has to be used by a certain date.
When the money has been used to do what the donor intended for it to be for or if the time elapses, the account can become unrestricted.
In this case the college got the money to replace obsolete and damaged equipment so the money will be temporarily restricted.

cientists have developed a bacteria that they believe will lower the freezing point of agricultural products. This innovation could save farmers $1 billion a year in crops now lost to frost damage. If this technology becomes widely used, what will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity in, for example, the potato market?
Answer:
equilibrium price would fall and equilibrium quantity would increase
Explanation:
The discovery would reduce the amount of crops now lost to frost damage and increase the supply of crops e.g. potato.
As a result of the increase in supply, there would be an excess of supply over demand equilibrium price would fall and quantity would increase
Please check the attached image for a graph showing increase in supply

a) Data and Calculations:
State of the Economy Probability E(R) Weighted Value
Boom 0.40 16% 0.064
Recession 0.60 -22% -0.132
Total expected returns -0.068
= -6.8%
Let us assume that this stock is Stock A. Therefore, Stock A's expected return is given by adding the weighted returns of the two economic states of Boom and Recession. The result shows that the returns will be negative (-6.8%). This implies that instead of appreciating in value, the stock will actually depreciate by 6.8%.
Turn to Part C of the Systems Analyst’s Toolkit and review the concept of net present value (NPV). Determine the NPV for the following: An information system will cost $95,000 to implement over a one-year period and will produce no savings during that year. When the system goes online, the company will save $30,000 during the first year of operation. For the next four years, the savings will be $20,000 per year. Assuming a 12% discount rate, what is the NPV of the system?
Answer:
$-13,975.91
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 0 = $-95,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $30,000
Cash flow each year from 2 to 5 = $20,000
I = 12%
NPV = $-13,975.91
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
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.

Standard DeLuxe Price per unit $ 40 $ 60 Variable cost per unit $ 20 $ 24 Machine hours per unit 0.5 1.5 The one machine that used to produce both models has a capacity of 90,000 machine-hours per quarter. Fixed manufacturing costs per quarter are $800,000. Required: a. Suppose that the maximum unit sales in a quarter that Pappy's can achieve is 200,000 units of each product. How many units of each model should Pappy's produce in a quarter? b. Suppose that the maximum unit sales in a quarter that Pappy's can achieve is 120,000 units of each product. How many units of each model should Pappy's produce in a quarter?
Answer:
See explanations below
Explanation:
a. Contribution margin per hour
Standard
Selling price $40
Variable cost $20
Contribution margin. $20
Hour per unit. 0.5
Contribution margin per hour $10
Deluxe
Selling price $60
Variable cost. $24
Contribution margin $36
Hour per unit. 1.5
Contribution margin per hour $54
Optimum product mix
Standard 90,000 / 0.5 = 180,000 units
Deluxe. 0
Total. 90,000
Pappy should produce 180,000 units of standard and nil of deluxe.
b. Given the contribution margin per hour of $10 for standard and $54 for deluxe, the optimum product mix would be;
Standard 120,000 × 0.5 = 60,000 hours, 120,000 units
Deluxe 30,000 hours , 30,000/1.5= 20,000 units.

ABC Telecom Inc. currently is financed with 10% debt and 90% equity. However, its CFO has proposed that the firm issue new long-term debt and repurchase some of the firm’s common stock. Its advisers believe that the long-term debt would require a before-tax yield of 10%, while the firm’s basic earning power is 14%. The firm’s operating income and total assets will not be affected. The CFO has told the rest of the management team that he believes this move will increase the firm’s stock price. If ABC Telecom Inc. proceeds with the recapitalization, which of the following items are also likely to increase? Check all that apply.
Answer:
The Cost of equity and cost of debt would likely to increase
Explanation:
If the debt rises so the cost of debt is also rising. Moreover, the higher leverage represents more risk in which the cost of equity also increased
In the given situation, both the cost of debt and cost of equity is rises but the net income would be decline because there is high interest expense and at the same time the assets would be remain the same and return on assets would be lesser
Michone lost her job and ended up deep in debt after she was arrested for causing a car accident while she was drinking and driving. The victim in the car accident sued Michone and was awarded $40,000 in damages. Michone declared bankruptcy before she paid the victim the amount of the judgement. A couple of years before Michone declared bankruptcy, she purchased a house with a mortgage of $500,000. At the time of her bankruptcy, the house sold for $400,000. In addition, Michone was behind in her property taxes in the amount of $8,000. The attorney’s fees for the bankruptcy were $4,000. She also owed back child support in the amount of $5,000. List Michone’s creditors and the priority of their claims. In addition, if Michone only had $10,000 for the creditors listed in this discussion forum, how much would each of the creditors receive?
Answer:
Michone's creditors (listed in order of priority):
bank = $500,000 mortgage (secured loan)child support = $5,000 (priority class of unsecured creditors)legal fees = $4,000 (second class of unsecured creditors)State government* = property taxes for $8,000 (eighth class of unsecured creditors, but property taxes are always collected after a property is sold either by foreclosure or by court order). Even if the new buyer didn't know anything about the delinquent property taxes, he/she is responsible for paying them after the sale is made and it cannot be avoided. car accident victim = $40,000 (tenth class of unsecured creditor)*Generally taxes owed are a lower class of priority unsecured creditors, but taxes never disappear. In this case, the property taxes are going to be paid by whoever bought the house or the bank in case the house was foreclosed. Michone will not pay them, but someone else will.
Assuming that Michone only had $10,000 left after selling the house (both property taxes and mortgage are paid for), she will need to pay child support first. Child support and alimony payments always have the top priority.
Then with the remaining $5,000 administrative and legal fees will be paid, meaning that the attorney fees will be paid first. The car accident victim will receive only $1,000.

Bradley Snapp has deposited $5,000 in a guaranteed investment account with a promised rate of 6% compounded annually. He plans to leave it there for 4 full years when he will make a down payment on a car after graduation. How much of a down payment will he be able to make?
Answer:
$6,312.38
Explanation:
Bradley snapp deposited $5,000 in an investment account
He was given a rate of 6% compounded annually
He plans to leave the money there for 4 years when he will make a down payment on a car
Therefore the down payment which he will be able to make can be calculated as follows
= $5000×(1+0.06)^4
= $5000×1.06^4
= $5000 × 1.26247696
= $6,312.38
Hence the down payment Bradley will be able to make is $6,312.38
The HR director at Clearwater Electronics has been asked to advise the board on a proposal to implement a variable compensation plan for top executives in each department. The CFO wants the HR director to explain how the plan will encourage productivity in top management positions. Which statement best explains why a variable compensation plan would help increase performance
Answer:
-The incentives will only be paid if the company does well, so the managers will be motivated to meet their goals.
Explanation:
Variable compensation is one that is paid as a bonus or commission for meeting a set target. It is an incentive payment that rewards an employee for meeting a goal.
On the other hand base salary is a fixed amount that is played regardless of performance.
In this scenario where the HR director at Clearwater Electronics has been asked to advise the board on a proposal to implement a variable compensation plan for top executives in each department, this will motivate the top executives to perform well since they will be compensated if the company meets their goals
Answer:
The incentives will only be given if the company reaches it's goals, so the managers will be motivated to meet their targets.
Explanation:
A variable compensation plan is that which is not part of the basic compensation offered at the begining of the contractual relationship. It is more like an add-on which is structured in such a way the employee goes home with more financial and or non financial benefits than what they would have been paid if the goals were not met.
Because this increase in benefits, which in most cases is financial is tied to the employee attaining their goals, it motivates them to increase their performance. As they hit their targets and or goals, the company also improves and advances because the employee goals and or targets are miniature versions of the business goals.

Would you expect holding cost to go down with increases in maximum capacity?
Answer: The answer is given below
Explanation:
Holding costs are the costs that.has to do with the storage of inventory that were not sold. costs and they are storage space, price of damaged or spoilt goods, labor, and insurance.
It should be noted that with regard to holding cost, increasing peak capacity will be expected to reduce since the capacity is typically inversely proportional to the theory of the holding cost as there may be a reduction in the holding cost so as to increase the capacity.
Hedging transactions in an active future market have zero.
A. True
B. False
Answer:
A. True
Explanation:
Hedging transactions can be described as derivative that are purchased in order to reduce investment risk of investments by using options, futures or forward contracts as insurance.
A futures market refers to a central financial exchange where standardized futures contracts are bought and sole as defined by the exchange.
Generally, positive net present value (NPV) is yielded by hedging. But the NPV will be zero or even slightly negative as when the market becomes active about the future.
Based on this explanation, the correct option is A. True. That is, hedging transactions in an active future market have zero.
When is a contingent liability recorded? a) When the amount car be reasonably estimated. b) When the future events are probable to occur and the amount can be reasonably estimated. c) When the future events are probable to occur. d) When the future events will possibly occur and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Contingent liability is a liability that may occur in the future subject to the outcome of a specific event. The future outcome determines contingent liability. Examples of contingent liability are product warranties, pending court case etc.
So contingent liability should be recognized when the future events are probable to occur and the amount can be reasonably estimated
Last month, you lent a work colleague $5000 to cover some overdue bills. He agreed to pay you in 1 month with interest at 2% for the month, thus owing you $5100. Today, when the repayment is due, he asked you to extend the loan for another month and he would pay you the $5100 next month. In the meantime, you have had the offer to invest as much as you wish in an oil-well venture that is expected to pay 36% per year and a hot new IT stock that is estimated to return 48% the first year. If you let your colleague have another month, what is the opportunity cost of your decision
Answer:
There are at least 2 opportunity costs associated with of letting your colleague have another month:
if you invested in the oil-well venture, you could have earned $5,100 x 36% = $1,836 in one yearif you invested in the new IT stock, you could have earned $5,100 x 48% = $2,448 in one yearYou could invest in one of these options, or divide your money and invest in both options, e.g. invest $2,000 in the oil company and $3,000 in the IT company. Each different investment proportion results in a different opportunity cost.
Explanation:
Opportunity costs are the benefits lost or extra costs associated to carrying out an investment or activity instead of another alternative. Sometimes you might have several opportunity costs for one investment, e.g. invest in the IT company which is risky, invest in corporate bonds which is less risky or invest in US securities which is a safe investment.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average Index has an unusual weighting methodology . Unlike the S&P 500, it is weighted by share price. Here are 20 of the 30 members of the Dow Jones on March 20, 2019. If all the shares went up by 5%, which share on the screen shown would have the biggest contribution to an upward movement in the Index ?
Answer: Goldman Sachs
Explanation:
If all shares rose by 5% in the value, the biggest contributor to the S&P 500 's upward movement would be the one with the highest weight from the listed options.
From the options listed, Apple has a weight of 4.955 , General Electric is not listed, Exxon Mobil has a weight of 2.1417 and Goldman Sachs has a weight of 5.1177.
Goldman Sachs has the largest weight and so would contribute the most.
An analyst observes a GUI & Co 6.25%, 5 year semi-annual pay bond trading at 104.764% of par (where par = $1,000). The bond is callable at 102 in 3 years and putable at 99 in 3 years. #3: what are the bond's current yield and yield to maturity? #4. What's the bond's yield to call and put? EC: Do you expect that the bond would be called and/or put? Why or Why not?
Answer:
3) the bond's current yield = ($31.25 / $1,047.64) x 2 = 5.97%
the bond's YTM = {31.25 + [(1,000 - 1,047.64) / 10]} / [(1,000 + 1,047.64) / 2] = 26.486 / 1,023.82 = 2.587% x 2 = 5.17%
4) bond's YTC = {31.25 + [(1,020 - 1,047.64) / 6]} / [(1,020 + 1,047.64) / 2] = 26.64 / 1,033.82 = 2.577% x 2 = 5.15%
bond's YTP = {31.25 + [(990 - 1,047.64) / 6]} / [(990 + 1,047.64) / 2] = 21.64 / 1,018.82 = 2.124% x 2 = 4.25%
EC) Since the bond's coupon rate is higher than the market rate, it is being sold at a premium. Since the call price is lower than the market price, they will probably be called.

Which of the following are correct descriptions of large corporations? (You may select more than one answer. Single click the box with the question mark to produce a check mark for a correct answer and double click the box with the question mark to empty the box for a wrong answer. Any boxes left with a question mark will be automatically graded as incorrect.)
Answer:
The corporation survives even if managers are dismissed.Shareholders can sell their holdings without disrupting the business.Explanation:
Large corporations are not as easy to dissolve as other types of companies because they have other resources that are able to keep them going if they lose some. One of those resources could be a manager. Should a manager be dismissed, the corporation will survive and simply replaced the dismissed manager.
Also with such corporations, the shareholders can simply sell their shares and the business's operation will not be disrupted as the shareholders do not have any direct say over the day to day running of the business.
If the company can produce and sell no more than units, should it do so? A. . Since is equal to the break-even quantity, production of the product produce a profit. B. . Since is than the break-even quantity, production of the product produce a profit. C. . Since is than the break-even quantity, production of the product produce a profit. D. . Since is than the break-even quantity, production of the product produce a profit.
Answer: D.No. Since 26 is less than the break-even quantity, production of the product cannot produce a profit
Explanation:
At Breakeven the company will be making $0 in profit. The break-even number of units will therefore be;
0 = Revenue - costs
0 = 520x - (390x+15,340)
0 = 520x - 390x - 15,340
0 = 130x - 15,340
130x = 15,340
x = 118 units
As the break-even point is 118 units, anything below this will yield a loss. As the company has a capacity of 26 units, this is below the breakeven point so the company should not produce the good as they will surely make losses.
