Answer:
Bond Price = $248.5227409 million rounded off to $248.523 million
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 300 * 0.08 * 6/12 = 12 million
Total periods (n) = 20 * 2 = 40
r or YTM = 0.10 * 6/12 = 0.05 or 5%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 12 * [( 1 - (1+0.05)^-40) / 0.05] + 300 / (1+0.05)^40
Bond Price = $248.5227409 million rounded off to $248.523 million
S&L Financial buys and sells securities which it classifies as available-for-sale. On December 27, 2021, S&L purchased Coca-Cola bonds at par for $965,000 and sold the bonds on January 3, 2022, for $968,500. At December 31, the bonds had a fair value of $960,000, and S&L has the intent and ability to hold the investment until fair value recovers. What pretax amounts did S&L include in its 2021 and 2022 net income as a result of this investment
Answer:
2021= $0 gain/loss
2022= $3,500 gain
Explanation:
S and L financial buys and sells securities
On December 27, 2021 S&L purchased coca-cola bonds at par for $965,000
The bonds were sold for $968,500 at January 3 2022
At December 31, the bonds had a fair value of $960,000
Since the amount of fair value has reduced greatly below the value at which it was bought on December 31 then, this implies that there will be no gain/loss that will be recognised in the earnings
Therefore,
The Pretax amount that S&L include in its net income as a result of this investment in 2021 is
= $0 gain/loss in earnings
The pretax amount that S&L include in its net income as a result in this investment in 2022 is
= $968,500-$965,000
= $3,500 gain

A multiconcept restaurant incorporates two or more restaurants, typically chains, under one roof. Sharing facilities reduces costs of both real estate and labor. The multiconcept restaurants typically offer a limited menu compared to full-sized, stand-alone restaurants. For example, KMAC operates a combination Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC)/Taco Bell restaurant. The food preparation areas are separate, but orders are taken at shared point-of-sale (POS) stations. If Taco Bell and KFC share facilities, they reduce fixed costs by 30 percent; however, sales in joint facilities are 20 percent lower than sales in two separate facilities. What do these numbers imply for the decision of when to open a shared facility versus two separate facilities
Answer: The Multiconcept restaurant is beneficial to both restaurant chains
Explanation:
If they share resources then they are saving 30% in fixed costs even though they are losing 20% in sales.
If the losses in sales are subtracted from the savings in fixed costs, it means that both Taco Bell and KFC are benefitting by 10%.
This shows that the decision to open a shared facility versus two separate facilities is beneficial to both restaurants on a net benefits basis as the savings in fixed costs from sharing facilities outweighs the losses in sales probably resulting from not offering a full menu.
Suppose we can divide all the goods produced by an economy into two types:
consumption goods and capital goods.
Capital goods, such as machinery, equipment, and computers, are goods used to produce other goods. Suppose a technological advance occurs that affects the production of consumption goods but not capital goods. If a technological advance occurs that affects the production of consumption goods but not capital goods, then the production possibilities frontier will:_______.
Answer: C. shift outward along the consumption goods axis.
Explanation:
The Production Possibilities Frontier is used to graph the optimal production quantities of 2 types goods in an economy given the limited resources in the economy.
This means that the frontier represents the combination of both goods can be produced given available resources and if one produces more of one good they would have to give up producing some of the other good.
If there was a technological advance that could increase the amount of consumption goods given the same resources then the PPF would shift outward along the consumption good axis to reflect this.
g In Lizzie Shoes’ experience, gift cards that have not been redeemed within 12 months are not likely to be redeemed. Lizzie Shoes sold gift cards for $19,500 during August 2021. $5,000 of cards were redeemed in September 2021, $3,390 in October, $3,080 in November, and $2,380 in December 2021. In 2022 an additional $1,250 of cards were redeemed in January and $680 in February. How much gift card revenue associated with the August 2021 gift card sales would Lizzie get to recognize in 2021 and 2022?
Answer:
2021
Due to the Accrual principle in Accounting, the revenue for 2021 will be the gift cards that were earned (redeemed) in 2021.
= 5,000 + 3,390 + 3,080 + 2,380
= $13,850
2022
Any gift cards that have not been redeemed within 12 months are not likely to be redeemed so the remaining gift cards can be said to be redeemed in 2022 which would mean that the revenue in 2022 is;
= 19,500 - 13,850
= $5,650

"Ramon runs the marketing department at his company. His department gets a budget every year, and every year, he must spend the entire budget without going over. If he spends less than the budget, then his department gets a smaller budget the following year. At the beginning of this year, Ramon got $2.5 million for the annual marketing budget. He must spend the budget such that 2,500,000−x=0. What property of addition tells us what the value of x must be?"
Answer:
Property of additive inverse
Explanation:
Given: Ramon got $2.5 million for the annual marketing budget such that he must spend the budget such that [tex]2,500,000-x=0[/tex]
To find: property of addition that help us to know what the value of x must be
Solution:
1 million is equal to [tex]1,000,000[/tex]
So,
[tex]2.5\,\,million=2.5(1,000,000)=2,500,000[/tex]
According to property of additive inverse,
[tex]a+(-a)=0[/tex]
Given equation is [tex]2,500,000-x=0[/tex]

A manufacturing company that produces a single product has provided the following data concerning its most recent month of operations: Selling price $ 160 Units in beginning inventory 100 Units produced 16,000 Units sold 15,800 Units in ending inventory 300 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 51 Direct labor $ 46 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 8 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 5 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $560,000 Fixed selling and administrative expense $173,800 What is the total period cost for the month under variable costing
Answer:
Period costs= $813,800
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Units produced 16,000
Variable selling and administrative expense $5
Fixed manufacturing overhead $560,000
Fixed selling and administrative expense $173,800
The period costs are the costs not directly involved in the production.
Period costs= fixed overhead + total variable selling and administrative costs
Period costs= 560,000 + 5*16,000 + 173,800
Period costs= $813,800

The market value: Group of answer choices of accounts receivable is generally higher than the book value of those receivables. of fixed assets will always exceed the book value of those assets. of an asset is reflected in the balance sheet. of an asset is lowered each year by the amount of depreciation expensed for that asset. of an asset tends to provide a better guide to the actual worth of that asset than does the book value.
Answer:
Option E would be the appropriate response.
Explanation:
Market value seems to be the fair market rate of a commodity and is widely often used the reference to something like the capital structure of the economy. An underlying asset fair value seems to have been a clearer reference to the true valuation of even a commodity than that of the market value, so users apparently can't get the power compared or equality to the market price if someone attempt to sell an investment, otherwise you get the cost is equivalent to the valuation.Some other options aren't tied to something like the valuation of the sector. The last alternative, then, seems to be the right answer.
Harrington Company uses predetermined overhead rates to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. The predetermined overhead rate is based on machine-hours in the Machining Department and direct labor cost in the Assembly Department. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Machining Assembly Direct labor hours 16,000 12,000 Direct labor cost $ 20,000 $ 15,000 Machine-hours 5,000 1,000 Manufacturing overhead $ 25,000 $ 30,000 What predetermined overhead rates would be used in the Machining and Assembly Departments, respectively?
Answer
Machining Department Assembly department
POAR = $5 per machine hour 200% of direct labor cost
Explanation:
Under absorption costing, overheads are charged to products using pre-determined overhead absorption rate. With this rate, overhead are included in the cost of every unit produced.
The rated is computed follows:
Predetermined overhead absorption rate (POAR)
= Estimated overhead for the period/Estimated activity level
Machining Department
POAR =25,000/ 5,000 machine hours=$5 per machine hour
Assembly department
PIAR = $30,000/15,000× 100 = 200% of labor cost

Harris Company must set its investment and dividend policies for the coming year. It has three independent projects from which to choose, each of which requires a $3 million investment. These projects have different levels of risk, and therefore different costs of capital. Their projected IRRs and costs of capital are as follows: Project A: Cost of capital = 18%; IRR = 21% Project B: Cost of capital = 14%; IRR = 11% Project C: Cost of capital = 7%; IRR = 10% Harris intends to maintain its 35% debt and 65% common equity capital structure, and its net income is expected to be $6,288,000. If Harris maintains its residual dividend policy (with all distributions in the form of dividends), what will its payout ratio be? Round your answer to two decimal places. %
Answer:
Dividend payout ratio = 37.98%
Explanation:
Residual dividend policy means where a company uses residual equity to fund dividend payments.
We will accept Project A & C because Project B has lesser IRR than its Cost of Capital
Total investment = $3,000,000 * 2
Total investment = $6,000,000
Dividends = Earnings - Investment
Dividends = $6,288,000 - 65%*($6,000,000)
Dividends = $6,288,000 - 0.65($6,000,000)
Dividends = $6,288,000 - $3,900,000
Dividends = $2,388,000
Dividend payout ratio = Dividend / Total earnings
Dividend payout ratio = $2,388,000 / $6,288,000
Dividend payout ratio = 0.379771
Dividend payout ratio = 37.98%

Miller Corporation has a premium bond making semiannual payments. The bond has a coupon rate of 8 percent, a YTM of 6 percent, and 12 years to maturity. The Modigliani Company has a discount bond making semiannual payments. This bond has a coupon rate of 6 percent, a YTM of 8 percent, and also has 12 years to maturity. Both bonds have a par value of $1,000. What is the price of each bond today? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Price of Miller bond $ 1169.36 Price of Modigliani bond $ 847.53 If interest rates remain unchanged, what do you expect the price of these bonds to be 1 year from now? In 3 years? In 7 years? In 11 years? In 12 years?
Answer:
Miller-bond:
today: $ 1,167.68
after 1-year: $ 1,157.74
after 3 year: $ 1,136.03
after 7-year: $ 1,084.25
after 11-year: $ 1,018.87
at maturity: $ 1,000.00
Modigliani-bond:

after 1-year: $ 855.49
after 3 year: $ 873.41
after 7-year: $ 918.89
after 11-year: $ 981.14
at maturity: $ 1,000.00
Explanation:
We need to solve for the present value of the coupon payment and maturity of each bonds:
Miller:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C 80.000
time 12
rate 0.06
[tex]80 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-12} }{0.06} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $670.7075
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 1,000.00
time 12.00
rate 0.06
[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.06)^{12} } = PV[/tex]
PV 496.97
PV c $670.7075
PV m $496.9694
Total $1,167.6769
In few years ahead we can capitalize the bod and subtract the coupon payment
after a year:
1.167.669 x (1.06) - 80 = $1,157.7375
after three-year:
1,157.74 x 1.06^2 - 80*1.06 - 80 = 1136.033855
If we are far away then, it is better to re do the main formula
after 7-years:
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C 80.000
time 5
rate 0.06
[tex]80 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-5} }{0.06} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $336.9891
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 1,000.00
time 5.00
rate 0.06
[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.06)^{5} } = PV[/tex]
PV $747.26
PV c $336.9891
PV m $747.2582
Total $1,084.2473
1 year before maturity:
last coupon payment + maturity
1,080 /1.06 = 1.018,8679 = 1,018.87
For the Modigliani bond, we repeat the same procedure.
PV
[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]
C 30.000
time 24
rate 0.04
[tex]30 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-24} }{0.04} = PV\\[/tex]
PV $457.4089
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity 1,000.00
time 24.00
rate 0.04
[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.04)^{24} } = PV[/tex]
PV 390.12
PV c $457.4089
PV m $390.1215

Bostonian Company provided the following information related to its defined benefit pension plan for 2017: PBO on 1/1 $ 2,500,000 Fair value of plan assets on 1/1 2,000,000 Service cost 120,000 Actual return on plan assets 320,000 Payments made to retirees on 12/31 100,000 Amortization of prior service cost 40,000 Recognized actuarial losses 50,000 Contributions made to plan at 12/31 80,000 Interest rate for discounting pension obligations 6 % Expected return on plan assets 8 % Required: What amount of pension expense should Bostonian report for 2017
Answer:
$200,000
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of pension expense is shown below:
= Service cost + interest cost - expected return + amortization + actuarial gain
= $120,000 + $2,500,000 × 6% - $2,000,000 × 8% + $40,000 + $50,000
= $120,000 + $150,000 - $160,000 + $40,000 + $50,000
= $200,000
Hence, the amount of pension expense is $200,000 and the same is to be considered

Jeff Kaufmann’s machine shop sells a variety of machines for job shops. A customer wants to purchase a model XPO2 drilling machine from Jeff’s store. The model XPO2 sells for $180,000, but Jeff is out of XPO2s. The customer says he will wait for Jeff to get a model XPO2 in stock. Jeff knows that there is a wholesale market for XPO2s from which he can purchase an XPO2. Jeff can buy an XPO2 today for $150,000, or he can wait a day and buy an XPO2 (if one is available) tomorrow for $125,000. If at least one XPO2 is still available tomorrow, Jeff can wait until the day after tomorrow and buy an XPO2 (if one is still available) for $110,000. There is a 0.40 probability that there will be no model XPO2s available tomorrow. If there are model XPO2s available tomorrow, there is a 0.70 probability that by the day after tomorrow, there will be no model XPO2s available in the wholesale market. Three days from now, it is certain that no model XPO2s will be available on the wholesale market.a. What is the maximum expected profit if Jeff makes the purchase today?b. What is the maximum expected profit if Jeff makes the purchase tomorrow?c. What is the maximum expected profit if Jeff makes the purchase two days from now?d. What is the maximum expected profit if Jeff makes the purchase three days from now?e. What should Jeff do?
Answer:
a) If Jeff purchases today, then he can expect to earn $30,000.
b) If Jeff decides to wait and try to purchase tomorrow, his expected profit is $22,000.
c) If Jeff decides to wait even more and buy the day after tomorrow, then his expected profit is $8,400.
d) Three days form now there will be no XPO2 available, so his profit is $0.
e) Jeff should purchase the XPO2 today and earn $30,000.
Explanation:
selling price $180,000
buys today, then profit = $180,000 - $150,000 = $30,000buys tomorrow, then profit = $180,000 - $125,000 = $55,000 x 40% = $22,000if he buys the day after tomorrow, then profit = $180,000 - $110,000 = $70,000 x 40% x 30% = $8,400if he waits 3 days, then his profit is $0 because there are no XPO2s available.The fiscal year ends December 31 for Lake Hamilton Development.

Identify the accounting concept that describes each situation below. Do not use any concept more than once. a. Is the rationale for why plant assets are not reported at liquidation value. (Do not use the historical cost principle.) choose the accounting concept b. Indicates that personal and business recordkeeping should be separately maintained. choose the accounting concept c. Ensures that all relevant financial information is reported. choose the accounting concept d. Assumes that the dollar is the "measuring stick" used to report on financial performance. choose the accounting concept e. Requires that accounting standards be followed for all items of significant size. choose the accounting concept f. Separates financial information into time periods for reporting purposes. choose the accounting concept g. Requires recognition of expenses in the same period as related revenues. choose the accounting concept h. Indicates that fair value changes subsequent to purchase are not recorded in the accounts.
Answer:
a. Is the rationale for why plant assets are not reported at liquidation value. (Do not use the historical cost principle.) - Going concern assumption
The going concern assumption, as the name implies, assumes that the firm will continue to operate in the foreseable future, and that it will be able to meet its financial obligations.
b. Indicates that personal and business recordkeeping should be separately maintained - Economic entity assumption
The economic entity assumption assumes that the firm is a separate entity from the owner, even if legally it is not so. For example, in accounting, a sole proprietorship is a separate entity even if under legal terms it is not so.
c. Ensures that all relevant financial information is reported - Full disclosure principle
This principle establishes that all financial information that may be relevant for the stockholders of the firm should be disclosed.
d. Assumes that the dollar is the "measuring stick" used to report on financial performance - Monetary unit assumption
This principle establishes that the value of all financial information should be expressed in monetary terms (for example, the dollar).
e. Requires that accounting standards be followed for all items of significant size - Materiality
The principle of materiality establishes that all financial information related to relevant items or transactions should be disclosed.
When the item or transaction is not considered to be relevant, then, it does not have to be disclosed.
For example, for a large multinational corporation, the purchase of a few pencils is not relevant, and does not have to be disclosed under the principle of materiality.
f. Separates financial information into time periods for reporting purposes - Periodicity
The periodicity principle relates to the fact that financial information is organized in specific periods of time, and these periods are carried out over time. These periods can go from daily to yearly.
g. Requires recognition of expenses in the same period as related revenues. choose the accounting concept - Matching principle
The matching principle establishes that revenues should be recognized when the associated expenses have been spent.
h. Indicates that fair value changes subsequent to purchase are not recorded in the accounts. - Measurement principle
The measurment principle of accounting focuses on past values, not on current values, although current market values may be also recognized.
Bratt's Bed and Breakfast, in a small historic New England town, must decide how to subdivide (remodel) the large old home that will become their inn. There are three alternatives: Option A would modernize all baths and combine rooms, leaving the inn with four suites, each suitable for two to four adults. Option B would modernize only the second floor; the results would be six suites, four for two to four adults, and two for two adults only. Option C (the status quo option) leaves all walls intact. In this case, there are eight rooms available, but only two are suitable for four adults, and four rooms will not have private baths. Below are the details of profit and demand patterns that will accompany each option. Which option has the highest expected value?Annual profit under various demand patterns Capacity p Average pA (Modernize all) $90,000 .5 $25,000 .5B (Modernize 2nd) $80,000 .4 $70,000 .6C (Status Quo) $60,000 .3 $55,000 .7
Answer:
Option B (Modernize 2nd) has the highest expected value which $74,000.
Explanation:
Note: The data in the question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before anwering the question as follows:
Annual profit under various demand patterns
Capacity p Average p
A (Modernize all) $90,000 .5 $25,000 .5
B (Modernize 2nd) $80,000 .4 $70,000 .6
C (Status Quo) $60,000 .3 $55,000 .7
The explanation to the answer is now provided as follows:
The expected value is estimated as the addition of the multiplication of each possible outcomes by the probability of occurrence of each outcome.
The expected value for each of the options in the question can therefore be estimated using the following formula:
Expected value = (Capacity * p of Capacity) + (Average * p of Average)
This formula is therefore applied to each options as follows:
Option A expected value = ($90,000 * 0.5) + ($25,000 * 0.5) = $45,000 + $12,500 = $57,500
Option B expected value = ($80,000 * 0.4) + ($70,000 * 0.6) = $32,000 + $42,000 = $74,000
Option C expected value = ($60,000 * 0.3) + ($55,000 * 0.7) = $18,000 + $38,500 = $56,500
Based on the calculations above, Option B (Modernize 2nd) has the highest expected value which $74,000.
