Answer:
b. 7 percent
Explanation:
Annual interest to charge = Interest rate + Rate of inflation anticipation
Annual interest to charge = 4% + 3%
Annual interest to charge = 7%
The bank would most likely charge the firm an annual interest rate of 7% due to the anticipation of inflation.
Marco, a real estate agent, receives a dozen emails in his inbox. Six of the emails are inquiries to a new condo listing he has in the North End. He confirms appointments with three of the prospective buyers, one of them decides that the condo won't work after receiving information on the layout of the property and the other email Marco ignores because the email address has a last name in it that appears to be Irish. Has Marco risked his real estate license
Answer:
Yes because Marco discriminated by ignoring the email due to its appearance of being linked to someone of a different national origin
Explanation:
Real estate agents are not allowed to discriminate against buyers of property. Of they do they can lose their Liscence.
Discrimination is the act of behaving differently
and withholding benefits from people based on their race, colour, religion, sex, or gender.
In this scenario Marco ignores communicating with one of his clients because the email address has a last name in it that appears to be Irish.
He did not consider the application at all resulting in the client losing the opportunity to obtain the new condo.
As a result of this discriminatory action Marco stands the risk of losing his liscence
orge and Anita, married taxpayers, earn $146,500 in taxable income and $58,000 in interest from an investment in City of Heflin bonds. (Use the U.S. tax rate schedule for married filing jointly). Required: If Jorge and Anita earn an additional $109,000 of taxable income, what is their marginal tax rate on this income
Answer:
Currently (assuming a 2020 tax schedule), Jorge and Anita's tax liability = $9,235 + [22% x ($146,500 - $80,250)] = $23,810
municipal bonds are not taxed by the federal government, so they do not pay any taxes on the interests earned on the City of Heflin bonds.
if they earn an additional $109,000, then their tax liability will be:
$29,211 + [24% x ($255,500 - $171,050)] = $49,479
their marginal tax rate = 24%

g Use the company's financial information below to help answer this question: Sales 5000 Operating Income 1000 Net Income 500 Dividends Paid 200 Total Assets Turnover 2.0 Leverage Ratio 2.0 The company's sustainable long term growth rate is closest to: HINT: gLT
Answer:
24%
Explanation:
Missing word "Profit margin 10%"
Profit = Sales * Profit margin = $5000*10% = $500
Dividend payout ratio = Dividend paid / Profit = $200 / $500 = 0.4
Retention ratio = 1 - Dividend payout ratio = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6
Return on Equity (As per DuPont equation) = Net profit margin * Asset turnover ratio * Financial leverage = 10% * 2.0 * 2.0 = 0.4 = 40%
Sustainable growth rate = Retention ratio x Return on equity = 0.60 * 40% = 0.24 = 24%
Equipment that cost $871000 and had a book value of $387000 was sold for $457000. Data from the comparative balance sheets are: 12/31/21 12/31/20 Equipment $5410000 $4879000 Accumulated Depreciation 1654000 1500000 Equipment purchased during 2021 was $1402000. $531000. $911000. $821000.
Answer:
a. $1,402,000
Explanation:
Equipment purchased during 2021 = Cost of equipment on 12/31/2021 - (Cost of equipment on 12/31/2020 - Cost of equipment sold)
Equipment purchased during 2021 = $5,410,000 - ($4,879,000 - $871,000)
Equipment purchased during 2021 = $5,410,000 - $4,008,000
Equipment purchased during 2021 = $1,402,000

Explanation:
Over several decades, some industries, such as textile and clothing, which were once a significant part of the U.S. economy, have shifted manufacturing abroad. Using the idea of opportunity cost, provide an explanation of the reasoning behind this shift. How has this shift affected economic well-being locally
Answer:
Opportunity costs are the benefits lost or extra costs associated to choosing one activity or investment over another alternative.
In this case, the textile and clothing industry was replaced by more modern industries or services that require less labor, probably less capital and less natural resources. This means that the opportunity cost of producing clothes was too high when it meant that it had to replace other more profitable industries.
On the other hand, the opportunity cost of the clothing industry abroad is very low since labor is very cheap compared to the US, so some foreign countries have a comparative advantage.
When you are allocating resources efficiently, you will allocate them to activities that yield the highest returns and reject those that yield low returns. This improves the well being of the companies and the population as a whole.

Various financial data for Year 1 and Year 2 follow. Calculate the total productivity measure and the partial productivity measures for labor, capital, and raw materials for this company for both years. What do these measures tell you about this company?
Last year This year
Output Sales $200,000 $220,000
Input Labor 30,000 40,000
Raw Materials 35,000 45,000
Energy 5,000 6,000
Capital 50,000 50,000
Other 2,000 3,000
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
With regards to the above, the formula for total productivity measure is
= Output Sales( Total output) / Total Input
Total productivity measurement for Last year.
Output sales = $200,000
Total input = Input labor + Raw materials + Energy + Capital + others
= $30,000 + $35,000 + $5,000 + $50,000 + $2,000
= $122,000
Therefore, total productivity measure
= $200,000/$122,000
= 1.64
Total productivity measurement for this year
Output sales= $220,000
Total input = Input labor + raw materials + energy + capital + others
= $40,000 + $45,000 + $6,000 + $50,000 + $3,000
= $144,000
Therefore, total productivity measure
= $220,000/$144,000
= 1.53
Partial productivity for last year
Output sales = $200,000
Input = Input labor + raw materials + capital
= $30,000 + $35,000 + $50,000
= $115,000
Partial productivity measure = $200,000/$115,000
= 1.74
Partial productivity measure for this year
Output sales = $220,000
Input = Input labor + raw materials + capital
= $40,000 + $45,000 + $50,000
= $135,000
Therefore, partial productivity measurement for last year
= $220,000/$135,000
= 1.63
The above measures indicates that there is a reduction in total productivity measures from last year to this year. Same applies to partial productivity measures for both years.
1) Which of the following statements is false? A) The variance increases with the magnitude of the deviations from the mean. B) The variance is the expected square deviation from the mean. C) Two common measures of the risk of a probability distribution are its variance and its standard deviation. D) If the return is risk-free and never deviates from its mean, the variance is one.
Answer:
D) If the return is risk-free and never deviates from its mean, the variance is one.
Explanation:
In the given case, the following statements are true:
a. In the case when the variance increased so the deviation magnitude from the mean is also increased
2. The variance is the predicted square deviation from the mean
3. And, the two common measures of the risk is the variance and the standard deviation
But when the return is risk less so the variance should be zero not one
Therefore the option d is false
Can someone help me what is the answer
Answer:
a). $413,000
b). $485,000
Explanation:
As the December 31, 20y8, Assets of $543,000 and liabilities of $130,000.
Using accounting equation
a). owner's equity as of December 31, 20y8
The accounting equation is as follows.
Asset = Equity + Liabilities
$543,000 = Equity + $130,000
Equity = $543,000 - $130,000
Equity =$413,000
b). Owner's equity as DEC 31,20y9 assuming that assets increased by $103,000 and liabilities increased by $31,000 during 20y9
If assets increase by $103,000, assets will be $103,000 + $543,000
=$646,000
Liabilities increased by $31,000, new liabilities
=$130,000 + $31,000
=$161,000
$646,000 = equity + $161,000
Equity = $646,000 -$161,000
Equity = $485,000
Bonita Corporation has outstanding 9,100 shares of $100 par value, 6% preferred stock and 60,500 shares of $10 par value common stock. The preferred stock was issued in January 2020, and no dividends were declared in 2020 or 2021. In 2022, Bonita declares a cash dividend of $270,000. (a) Assume that the preferred are noncumulative. How much dividend will the preferred stockholders receive
Answer:
Bonita Corporation
Assuming that the preferred are noncumulative, the dividend that the preferred stockholders will receive is:
= $54,600.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Outstanding 6% preferred stock = 9,100 shares
Par value of preferred stock = $100 per share
Value of preferred stock = $910,000
Fixed annual dividend when declared = $54,600 ($910,000 * 6%)
Common stock = 60,500 shares
Par value of common stock = $10 per share
Value of common stock = $605,000
Dividends declared in 2022 = $270,000
Since the preferred stock are non-cumulative, the dividend that the preferred stockholders will receive in 2022 = $54,600
The remaining $215,400 will be allocated to common stockholders at $3.56 per share ($215,400/60,500).

A single firm provides the entire market supply. What type of market structure does this firm likely operate in
Answer:
Monopoly.
Explanation:
A monopoly is a market structure which is typically characterized by a single-seller who sells a unique product in the market by dominance. Thus, it is a market structure wherein the seller has no competitor because he is solely responsible for the sale of unique products without close substitutes. Any individual that deals with the sales of unique products in a monopolistic market is generally referred to as a monopolist.
For example, a public power company that serves as the only power utility provider to the general public.
Hence, if a single firm provides the entire market supply. Then type of market structure does this firm likely operate in is monopoly.
Kuhn Co. is considering a new project that will require an initial investment of $20 million. It has a target capital structure of 58% debt, 6% preferred stock, and 36% common equity. Kuhn has noncallable bonds outstanding that mature in 15 years with a face value of $1,000, an annual coupon rate of 11%, and a market price of $1555.38. The yield on the company’s current bonds is a good approximation of the yield on any new bonds that it issues. The company can sell shares of preferred stock that pay an annual dividend of $8 at a price of $95.70 per share. Kuhn does not have any retained earnings available to finance this project, so the firm will have to issue new common stock to help fund it. Its common stock is currently selling for $33.35 per share, and it is expected to pay a dividend of $2.78 at the end of next year. Flotation costs will represent 8% of the funds raised by issuing new common stock. The company is projected to grow at a constant rate of 9.2%, and they face a tax rate of 25%. What will be the WACC for this project? (Note: Round your intermediate calculations to two decimal places.)
Answer:
8?14%
Explanation:
Calculation for What will be the WACC for this project
First step is to calculate the Yield using financial calculator
N=15 years
FV=1,000
PV=-$1555.38
PMT=11%
CPT I/Y=5.48%%
Second step is to calculate After-tax cost of debt using this formula
After-tax cost of debt=Yield*(1-tax rate)
Let plug in the formula
After-tax cost of debt=5.48%*(1-25%)
After-tax cost of debt=5.48%*75%
After-tax cost of debt=4.11%
Third step is to calculate Cost of preferred stock using this formula
Cost of preferred stock=Dividend/Price
Let plug in the formula
Cost of preferred stock=8/92.25
Cost of preferred stock=8.67%
Fourth step is to Cost of common stock using this formula
Cost of common stock=Expected Dividend/(Price*(1-Flotation cost %))+Growth rate
Let plug in the formula
Cost of common stock=2.78/(33.35*(1-8%))+5.48%
Cost of common stock=2.78/(33.35*0.92)+5.48%
Cost of common stock=(2.78/30.68)+5.48%
Cost of common stock=9.06%+5.48%
Cost of common stock=14.54%
Now let calculate WACC
WACC=58%*4.11%+6%*8.67%+36%*14.54%
WACC=8.14%
Therefore What will be the WACC for this project is 8.14%
BBC Company hopes to buy new computers in two years and wishes to set aside money today for the purchase. BBC's Controller has developed the following estimates: Estimated Cash Outflows Probability Assessment $12,700 30% $13,300 50% $14,500 20% How much should BBC deposit today in an account earning 5% compounded annually, to have sufficient cash on hand to pay for the computers
Answer:
$12,117.91
Explanation:
The first task is to determine the cash flow amount that would be required in 2 years time by determining the expected value of estimated cash outflows which is the sum of the estimated cash flows multiplied by their respsective probabilities as shown thus:
expected value in 2 years=($12,700*30%)+($13,300*50%)+( $14,500*20%)
expected value in 2 years=$13,360.00
Using the present value formula below, we can calculate the amount to be invested today:
PV=FV/(1+r)^n
PV=the amount to be invested today=the unknown
FV=future value=FV=the amount of cash outflow required in 2 years=$13,360.00
r=rate of interest=5%
n=the length of time that the amount would invested=2 years
PV=$13,360.00/(1+5%)^2
PV=$12,117.91

Chuck, a single taxpayer, earns $76,800 in taxable income and $10,000 in interest from an investment in City of Heflin bonds. (Use the U.S. tax rate schedule.) Required: If Chuck earns an additional $40,260 of taxable income, what is his marginal tax rate on this income
Answer:
Answer:
a. 24%
b. 12%
Explanation:
Marginal tax rate is an incremental tax rate that is paid out of the taxable income of a tax payer. It represents the rate at which the last unit of dollar of the taxable income is taxed. The marginal rate for each income bracket is supplied by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Chuck Marginal Tax Rate
a) The marginal tax rate for Chuck if he earns additional $40,000 taxable income will be:
= $75,000 + $40,000
= $115,000
Marginal tax rate for $115,000 is 24% according IRS tax rate schedule.
b) If instead, it is an additional deduction of $40,0000, the marginal tax rate will be:
= $75,000 - $40,000
= $35,000
The marginal tax rate for taxable income of $35,000 is 12% according US tax rate schedule.
Note: the interest is categorized as interest from municipal bond, so it is tax free.
It is also assumed that Chuck is single. Hence, tax rate under single filer applies to him.

Suppose that, as part of an international trade agreement, the U.S. government reduces the tariff on imported coffee. Will this affect the supply or the demand for coffee? Why? Which determinant of demand or supply is being affected? Show graphically with before- and after-curves on the same axes. How will this change the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
The explanation of that same issue is described throughout the explanation section below.
Explanation:
A tariff reduction might well transition the quantity supplied of coffee just to something like the right because many coffees could then be started to sell with such relatively low taxes collected by the government. This same supply curve was influenced by the political regulation factor. Very few import taxes encourage consumers to sell further throughout the US. This same market value of the balance will indeed descend as well as the total amount will indeed increase.Why is it important for individuals to correctly calculate their tax liability?
