The Square Box is considering two independent projects, both of which have an initial cost of $18,000. The cash inflows of Project A are $3,000, $7,000, and $10,000 over the next three years, respectively. The cash inflows for Project B are $3,000, $7,000, and $15,000 over the next three years, respectively. The required return is 12 percent and the required discounted payback period is 3 years. Based on discounted payback, which project(s), if either, should be accepted? Multiple Choice Both projects should be accepted. Both projects should be rejected. Project A should be accepted and Project B should be rejected. Project A should be rejected and Project B should be accepted. You should be indifferent to accepting either or both projects.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Project A should be rejected and Project B should be accepted.

Explanation:

Discounted payback period calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its discounted cash flows

Project A

Cash flow in year 0 = $-18,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $3,000

Cash flow in year 2 = $7,000

Cash flow in year 3 = $10,000

I = 12%

The present value of the cash flows are less than $18,000. This means that the cash flows would not be recovered within the 3 years so project A should not be accepted

Project B

Cash flow in year 0 = $-18,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $3,000

Cash flow in year 2 = $7,000

Cash flow in year 3 = $15,000

I = 12%

Discounted cash flow in year 1 = 3000 / 1.12 = 2678.57

Discounted cash flow in year 2 = 7000 / 1.12^2 = 5580.36

Discounted cash flow in year 3 = 15000 / 1.12^3 = 10676.70

The amount recovered in year 1  = $18,000 - 2678.57 = $15,321.43

The amount recovered in year 2  = $15,321.43 - 5580.36 = $9,741.07

The amount recovered in year 3  = $9,741.07 / 10676.70 = 0.912

The amount is recovered in 2.91 years which is less than 3 years and so it is accepted

Charleston Corporation (CC) now operates as a "regular" corporation, but it is considering a switch to S Corporation status. CC is owned by 100 stockholders who each hold 1% of the stock, and each faces a personal tax rate of 35%. The firm earns $3,700,000 per year before taxes, and since it has no need for retained earnings, it pays out all of its earnings as dividends. Assume that the corporate tax rate is 34% and the personal tax rate is 35%. How much more (or less) spendable income would each stockholder have if the firm elected S Corporation status? Group of answer choices $7,605 $6,787 $10,139 $8,749 $8,177

Answers

Answer:

-2923

Explanation:

To calculate how much more (or less) spendable income would each stockholder has if the firm elected S Corporation status we need to calculate Profit attributable to each stockholder according to their holding percentage and will deduct the corporation tax on that.

DATA

No of stockholders = 100

Holding % = 1% each stock holder

Tax rate = 35%

Profit before tax = $3,700,000

Corporate tax = 34%

Profit before tax = 1% of 3,700,000 = 37,000

Tax (34%) = 34% of 37,000 = 12580

Profit after tax = 37,000 - 12,580 = 24,420

Now personal tax of 35% = 8547

Therefore tax = 24,420 - 8547 = 15,873

If only personal tax is levied tax would be = 35% * 37,000 = 12,950

therefore each stockholder will have 12,950 - 15,873 = -2923

On January 1, 2019, Company A acquired 100% of the voting common stock of Company B from Company B’s shareholders. Prior to the transaction, Company A had 11,440 shares of voting common stock outstanding and Company B had 5,000 shares of voting common stock outstanding. Which of the following terms or conditions of the transaction is an indicator that Company B is the acquiring entity for accounting purposes? a. The full slate of the Board of Directors is elected every two years. Company A Directors (from before the transaction) occupy 8 of the 12 seats on Company A’s Board after the acquisition. Company B Directors (from before the transaction) occupy 4 of the 12 seats on Company A’s Board after the acquisition.b. Company A issued 14,560 new shares of Company A common stock to execute the transaction.c. Company A changed its name to "Company B."d. Immediately after the transaction, Company B’s Chief Operating Officer became Company A’s Chief Operating Officer. All other executive positions were held by Company A executives

Answers

Answer: b. Company A issued 14,560 new shares of Company A common stock to execute the transaction.

Explanation:

The terms or conditions of the transaction which is an indicator that Company B is the acquiring entity for accounting purposes is that Company A issued 14,560 new shares of Company A common stock to execute the transaction.

The above scenario was chosen because when 14,560 shares are being held, the former shareholders that were in company B will own:

= 14,560/(11,440 + 14,560)

= 14560/26000

= 56% of common stock.

Because 56% of common stock is being own by them means that the company is being controlled by them as they own majority and therefore the board will be elected by them for the next two years.

Lionel is an unmarried law student at State University Law School, a qualified educational institution. This year Lionel borrowed $27,500 from County Bank and paid interest of $1,650. Lionel used the loan proceeds to pay his law school tuition. Calculate the amounts Lionel can deduct for higher education expenses and interest on higher-education loans under the following circumstances: (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable.) a. Lionel's AGI before deducting interest on higher-education loans is $50,000..

Answers

Answer:

Since 2019, the deduction limit for interest expense deductions on qualified higher education loans is $2,500. In order to qualify for this deduction, the taxpayer's adjusted AGI must be less than $85,000 for single filers (Lionel's income is below the threshold).

So Lionel will be able to deduct $1,650 as interest expense (above the line deduction).

Lionel can also deduct $2,500 form the American Opportunity Tax Credit for higher education expenses.

To illustrate Mill's concern with the uncultivated making poor decisions, consider the following example. Your state government determines that it has a budget surplus of $5 billion that it must spend before the end of the fiscal year. So, the legislature puts the following to a popular vote: ALL citizens currently residing in the state are entitled to either (1) a free college education; or (2) a free lifetime supply of beer. Because the "uncultivated" among you may not be able to distinguish between the "lower" good of free beer and the "higher" good of free education, do you believe that the majority of citizens would choose the beer? In what, if any, ways might decisions such as this led to the eventual decline of the cultural and intellectual life of your state? Mill argued that we should implement a requirement that people be "competent" judges, familiar with differences, before they could vote. Do you agree? IF so, how should we determine who is competent or who is not?

Answers

Answer:

Because the "uncultivated" among you may not be able to distinguish between the "lower" good of free beer and the "higher" good of free education, do you believe that the majority of citizens would choose the beer?

Mill believed that a proper utilitarian behavior would favor nobler and higher pleasures, e.g. education, arts, while it will rejects voluptuary or low level pleasures, e.g. free beer for life. That is why he separates people between those who only seek low level pursuits and those that actually seek higher ones.

I would really feel disappointed if the majority of the state's residents voted for free beer, but actually I really believe that it would be the winning option. Sadly, it is like watching Titanic and still hope that Leo will not die. You know its inevitable, but until the last moment you will not accept it.

When I was little (on kindergarten), my teacher taught us 3 things:

my ABCto sing the Star-Spangled Banner (although no one really remembered the words)the idea that if you study and work hard enough, you will succeed in life

I hope that other teachers still do the same and keep teaching these things, but I'm not so sure about the third one. Sadfully, as a society becomes less educated and less intellectual, they start to decline. That decline not only represents being dumber, but it also means that every time it will be harder for someone to do the right thing and to be able to succeed.

Mill argued that we should implement a requirement that people be "competent" judges, familiar with differences, before they could vote. Do you agree? IF so, how should we determine who is competent or who is not?

I do not agree with him since the basic premise of democracy is that everyone should be allowed to vote. No one has the right to determine who is competent enough to vote.

E.g. I do not like President Trump, and if I could determine who could vote or not, I would dictate that only people living in large urban areas should be allowed to vote. Why? Because according to me, urban life is better than rural life. This way I would make sure that the Republican party never wins an election again, but is that fair? Of course not. People living in rural areas or small towns have the same right to vote than people living on cities.

The same logic would apply to only allowing people living on wealthy states to vote, or only allowing people of certain race to vote. Whenever someone tries to limit other people's rights, bad things will happen.

The formula below tells us how to obtain the maturity value on a simple discount loan if we are given the proceeds, the discount rate, and the term. LaTeX: M = \frac{P}{1-d_RT}M = P 1 − d R T If a loan's annual simple discount rate is 2.14%, how many years would it take for the debt to double? (This is called the doubling time of a loan). Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a year. Hint: divide both sides of the equation by P. If M is twice as much as P, what should the fraction on the left-hand side equal?

Answers

Answer: it will take 23.4 YEARS for the debt to double.

Explanation:

Given that;

formula for maturity value on simple discount loan M =  P / ( 1 - dRT )

loan's annual simple discount rate = 2.14%

our dR given as 2.14% = 2.14/100 = 0.0214

from the question, if the debt double i means M = 2P

so

2P =  P / ( 1 - dRT )

we substitute

2P =  P / 1 - (0.0214)T

T = 1 / 2*0.0214

T = 1 / 0.0428

T = 23.3644 = 23.4 YEARS

therefore it will take 23.4 YEARS for the debt to double.

The stocks have a rate of return of 12%/year, while the bonds and the money market account pay 8%/year and 4%/year, respectively. The Garcias have stipulated that the amount invested in stocks should be equal to the sum of the amount invested in bonds and 3 times the amount invested in the money market account. How should the Garcias allocate their resources if they require an annual income of $10,000 from their investments

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let y amount be invested in bonds

Let x amount be invested in money account

Let x amount be invested in stocks

x = y + 3x

10,000 = 12/100(y+3x) + 8/100*y + 4/100*x

10,000 = 12(y+3x) + 8y + 4x / 100

10,000 * 100 = 12y+36x + 8y + 4x

2500 * 100 = 3y + 9x + 2y + x

250,000 = 5y + 10x

50,000 = y + 2x.......................(1)

x + y + z = $100,000

y + 3x + y + x = $100,000

2y + 4x = 100,000

y + 2x = 50,000.......................(ii)

y = 50,000 - 2x

x = 50,000 + x

z = z

An all-equity new firm is developing its business plan. It will require $615,000 of assets (which equals common equity), and it projects $450,000 of sales and $355,000 of operating costs for the first year. Management is reasonably sure of these numbers because of contracts with its customers and suppliers. It can borrow at a rate of 7.5%, but the bank requires it to have a TIE of at least 4.0. The firm will use debt and common equity for financing. What is the maximum debt to capital ratio (measured as debt/total common equity) the firm can use? (Hint: Find the maximum dollars of interest, then the debt that produces that interest, and then the related debt to capital ratio.)

Answers

Answer:

51.49%

Explanation:

An all equity new firm is developing its business plan

It will require assets of $615,000

The firm projects $450,000 of sales and $355,000 of operating costs for the first year

The first step is to calculate the EBIT

EBIT= sales - operating costs

= $450,000-$355,000

= $95,000

The interest can be calculated as follows

Interest= EBIT/TIE

= 95,000/4

= $23,750

Since the bank can borrow loan at the rate of 7.5% them the debt is

= 23,750/7.5/100

= 23,750/0.075

= $316,666.7

Therefore the maximum debt to capital ratio can be calculated as follows

= 316,666.7/615,000 × 100

= 0.5149 × 100

= 51.49%

Hence the maximum debt to capital ratio is 51.49%

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The normal balance of each account is a debit or credit is shown below:-

Accounts              Normal balance           Reason

Cash                        Debit                     Being an asset

Supplies                   Debit                     Being an asset

Note payable         Credit                      Being a liability

equipment              Debit                      Being an asset

accounts payable  Credit                      Being a liability

common stock      Credit                     Being an equity account

Therefore as per the balance sheet cash, supplies and equipment are the normal debit balance of assets while notes payable, accounts payable and common stock are the normal credit balance of liabilities on the balance sheet.

Fixed expenditures may be overt or indirect expenditures that may also have an bearing on revenue at various points throughout the financial statements. Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

Senff Corporation uses the following activity rates from its activity-based costing to assign overhead costs to products: Activity Cost Pools Activity Rate Setting up batches $ 93.00 per batch Processing customer orders $ 82.83 per customer order Assembling products $ 17.26 per assembly hour Data concerning two products appear below: Product V91Z Product V21I Number of batches 69 12 Number of customer orders 20 9 Number of assembly hours 492 697 How much overhead cost would be assigned to Product V91Z using the activity-based costing system? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Total allocated overhead= $16,742.64

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Activity Cost Pools Activity Rate

Setting up batches $ 93.00 per batch

Processing customer orders $ 82.83 per customer order

Assembling products $ 17.26 per assembly hour

Product V91Z

Number of batches 69

Number of customer orders 20

Number of assembly hours 492

To calculate the allocated overhead, we need to use the following formula:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Setting up= 93*69= 6,417

Processing= 82.83*20= 1,656.6

Assembling= 17.26*492= 8,669.04

Total allocated overhead= $16,742.64

A new building is to be constructed for a company and a fast connection between client and server systems within the building should be achieved. As well as the fastest possible connection between the new building and the old building. The new building is also not allowing wireless devices within it for security purposes. What networking components should one consider to achieve what the company wants if a medium sized budgetary constraint was put in place for the new building?

Answers

Options:

Category 6 cable runs for each network device with fiber optic feeds in/out of the buildings.Numerous 802.11b wireless access points along with category 5 cable runs between hubs and buildings.  Fiber Optic connections to all network device s, e.g. clients and servers.  Coaxial cable to all devices on the network with a fiber-optic feed in/out of the office.

Answer:

Category 6 cable runs for each network device with fiber optic feeds in/out of the buildings.

Explanation:

Remember, we are told to consider the fact that the company has a medium-sized budgetary constraint, meaning we should pick an alternative networking component option that is cost-effective and yet serves the same purpose.

Since part of the requirements is that the networking components is a fast connection between client and server systems, a Category 6 (Cat6) cable has the ability to achieve speeds of up to 10 Gbps (Gigabyte per second). Meaning? it can meet the fast connection requirements at a reduced cost.

You need a 25-year, fixed-rate mortgage to buy a new home for $240,000. Your mortgage bank will lend you the money at a 8.6 percent APR for this 300-month loan. However, you can afford monthly payments of only $800, so you offer to pay off any remaining loan balance at the end of the loan in the form of a single balloon payment. Required: How large will this balloon payment have to be for you to keep your monthly payments at $800?

Answers

Answer:

the balloon payment after 300 months is $1,205,266.38

Explanation:

In order to pay the loan completely after 300 months, your monthly payment should be $1,948.75. Since you can only pay $800 per month, the loan's balance after 300 payments will be $1,205,266.38. This is irrational since you will end up owing 4 times the initial amount. You will never even be close to paying even the interest expense, so the principal increases every month.

Glade Company leases computer equipment to customers under direct financing leases. The equipment has no residual value at the end of the lease term, and the leases do not contain bargain purchase options. Glade wishes to earn 8% interest on a five-year lease of equipment with a fair value of $323,400. Use tables (PV of 1, PVAD of 1, and PVOA of 1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Required:
Compute the total amount of interest revenue that Glade will earn over the life of the lease. (Round your intermediate and final answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

$51,588.70

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of interest revenue is shown below:-

Annual lease payments = Fair value of Equipment ÷ PV factor of $1 annuity due

= $323,400 ÷ (1 + (1 - (1.08)^-4) ÷ 0.08)

= $323,400 ÷ 4.31213

= $74,997.74

Now,

Total interest revenue = Gross lease payments receivable - Fair value

= $74,997.74 × 5 - $323,400

= $374,988.70 - $323,400

= $51,588.70

A 3/1 ARM is made for $150,000 at 7 percent with a 30-year maturity. a.

In (a) what would monthly payments be during year 1 if they were interest only? What would payments be beginning in year 4 if interest rates fell to 6 percent and the loan became fully amortizing?

Answers

Answer:

a. Assuming that fixed payments are to be made monthly for three years and that the loan is fully amortizing, what will be the monthly payments? What will be the loan balance after three years?

monthly payment = $997.95principal balance after 36th payment = $145,090.59

b. What would new payments be beginning in year 4 if the interest rate fell to 6 percent and the loan continued to be fully amortizing?

monthly payment = $905.34

c. In (a) what would monthly payments be during year 1 if they were interest only? What would payments be beginning in year 4 if interest rates fell to 6 percent and the loan became fully amortizing?

a. $875

b. $935.98

Explanation:

A 3/1 adjustable rate mortgage is a 30 year mortgage where the interest rate is fixed for the first 3 years, and then it can vary.

I prepared an amortization schedule that shows the first 3 payments with a 7% interest rate and then the rest of the payments will carry a 6% interest rate.

The monthly payment for the first 36 months is $997.95 (principal balance after 36th payment $145,090.59), then it decreases to $905.34 per month.

See amortization schedule 1

if the monthly payments only covered interest expenses during the first 3 years, they would be $150,000 x 7%/12 = $875

then the monthly payments would be $935.98.

See amortization schedule 2

According to the activity-based costing system, the unit product cost of product Q19S is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Unitary cost= $94.24

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each department:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Assembly=  974,440/68,000= $14.33 per machine-hour

Processing=  95,300/2,000= $47.65 per order

Inspection= 133,000/1,900= $70 per inspection

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Assembly= 14.33*710= $10,174.3

Processing= 47.65*42= $2,001.3

Inspection= 70*12= $840

Total overhead= $13,015.6

Unitary overhead= 13,015.6/450= $28.92

Finally, the unitary cost:

Unitary cost= 35.79 + 29.53 + 28.92

Unitary cost= $94.24

On September 30, 2021, the San Fillipo Corporation issued 8% stated rate bonds with a face amount of $300 million. The bonds mature on September 30, 2041 (20 years). The market rate of interest for similar bonds was 10%. Interest is paid semiannually on March 31 and September 30.Required:Determine the price of the bonds on September 30, 2021.

Answers

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

Retention ratio = 60%

Sustanble growth rate = Return on equity × Retention ratio ÷ (1 - Return on equity × Retention ratio)

= 17.14 × 0.60 ÷ (1 - 17.14% × 0.60)

= 11.46283829 %

or

What is records management?

Records management, also known as records and information management, is an organizational function devoted to the management of information in an organization throughout its life cycle, from the time of creation or receipt to its eventual disposition.

This includes identifying, classifying, storing, securing, retrieving, tracking and destroying or permanently preserving records. The ISO standard defines records management as field of management responsible for the efficient and systematic control of the creation, receipt, maintenance, use and disposition of records, including the processes for capturing and maintaining evidence of and information about business activities and transactions in the form of records. An organization's records preserve aspects of institutional memory. In determining how long to retain records, their capacity for re-use is important.

Many are kept as evidence of activities, transactions, and decisions. Others document what happened and why.

They are expected to generate ​$190 million in free cash flows next year with a growth rate of 2​% per year in perpetuity. River​ Enterprises' cost of equity capital is 13​%. After analyzing the​ company, you believe that the growth rate should be 3​% instead of 2​%. How much higher​ (in dollars) would the price per share be if you are​ right

Answers

Answer:

$7.85

Explanation:

the firm's total value = $190,000,000 / (13% - 2%) = $1,727,272,727

equity = $1,727,272,727 - $505,000,000 (debt) = $1,222,272,727

price per stock = $1,222,272,727 / 22,000,000 = $55.56 per stock

if you are right and the firm's growth rate is 3%, then:

the firm's total value = $190,000,000 / (13% - 3%) = $1,900,000,000

equity = $1,900,000,000 - $505,000,000 (debt) = $1,395,000,000

price per stock = $1,395,000,000 / 22,000,000 = $63.41 per stock

the difference = $63.41 - $55.56 = $7.85 or 14.13%

Fixed costs of $245,000 per year are attributed to the machine. The corporate tax rate is 22 percent and the appropriate discount rate is 9 percent. What is the financial break-even point? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16)

Answers

Answer:

3,074 units sold or total revenue of $236,698 per year

Explanation:

cost of machine $540,000

depreciation expense per year = $540,000 / 5 = $108,000

contribution margin per unit sold = $77 - $29 = $48

we generally calculate the financial break even point of a business by using the following formula:

= EBIT × (1 - interest expense) × (1 - tax rate) - preferred dividends

But when we are dealing with projects, the financial break even point is the sales level at which the project's NPV = $0. If the sales level is lower, then the project will be rejected, and if the sales level is higher, then it should be accepted.

using an annuity formula, the free cash flow per year needed for the NPV = $0 is $540,000 / 3.8897 (PV annuity factor, 9%, 5 periods) = $138,828.19

$138,828.19 = {[(unit sales x $48) - $108,000] x 0.78} + $108,000

$30,828.19 = [(unit sales x $48) - $108,000] x 0.78

$39,523.32 = (unit sales x $48) - $108,000

$147,523.32 = unit sales x $48

unit sales = $147,523.32 / $48 = 3,073.40 units ≈ 3,074 units sold

What is the range of the function in this table? Lisa smiled at her reflection, then made a funny face. She wore a cap, and her long hair blew in the wind. Her cheeks were pinkish from the cold and the wind, and her nose was moist. Lisa stepped away from natures mirror and was debating what after-school snack she would fix when she spied a lake of rainwater that extended from their squat trailer to the rusting tractors parked in the back.Oh, wow, she remarked. The afternoon glare off the lake made her squint. How strange, she mused. It had rained just after lunch at school, but the downpour hadnt seemed that heavy. Had a cloud stalled above their trailer and poured out its little heart?She strolled around the new lake, occasionally gazing back at her footprints in the soggy earth. The chickens in the yard were soggy, too, their feathers parted and showing the yellow skin underneath. Still, they scratched and pecked at the ground and left their own shallow prints in the wet earth.Ill draw the lake, Lisa decided. She liked drawing birds, but had grown tired of sparrows, blue jays, and blackbirds wrapped in glossiness. These days she liked doing portraits, though she could draw objects, too. The previous week she had drawn the pile of tires behind the tractors; the drawing now adorned the front of the refrigerator. Lisa produced a pencil and her sketch pad from her backpack. She had to capture this lake before it disappeared into the earth, taking with it the fluffy clouds mirrored on its surface. Birds the color of asphalt flittered about the edges of the puddle, and she recognized them as common finches. She knelt on the wet ground, putting down on paper what her eye beheld, what her fingers were able to portray. Her gift was a mystery, as neither of her parents could draw. Their talent was to bring their faces together, like lovebirds, and warble Mexican songs, although most of the time they were working. Her father was employed by a dairy and her mother, from windy March to scorching July, worked in the fieldsshe thinned beets and cotton and was sometimes on a womens crew that harvested cantaloupes. There were also two seasons when she packed peaches. Lisas dog, Pecas, roamed in the background. He paused, head raised and fur parting from the wind. Lisa had to smile. He seemed to be posing as the subject of her artwork. His breath hung in the air when he barked at movement in the grassa rabbit, she wondered, or a quail in search of a mate? The gopher that had tunneled under their garden patch last summer and nibbled at everything her father had planted: cucumbers, tomatoes, chilies, and eggplant?Ill surprise my parents with this new drawing, Lisa thought. Cllate! 1 she ordered Pecas, who turned, head lifted and tail wagging, and happily trotted toward her. But when two large white birds dropped from the sky, Pecas lurched in fear, kicking up water. Oh my gosh, Lisa uttered, dropping her pencil. She searched the sky for other birds. But the sky was vacant, except for blackbirds wheeling over the fields across the street. As she took a cautious step toward the birds, she remembered that the night before she had been looking in her Audubon book at a picture of a bird that she would like to draw: the egret. Now before her stood a pair of egrets, which, against the backdrop of the grayish lake, were white as snow. Lisas heart thumped with excitement and Pecass tail wagged briskly. Lisa again turned her attention skyward: Where had they come from? What wind had brought them here at this moment? She reached for the pencil on the ground and rolled it between her palms to spark the fires of creation. She had to draw these rare and silent birds, who, if she remembered right, seldom whistled or twittered with song. Lisa turned and gasped. Over the lake arched a rainbow that began somewhere behind the tractors. The centerpiece was the pair of egrets, still as statues. Even Pecas stopped his whining. Lisa wondered, Can he really see the rainbow? She had read that dogs were mostly color-blind, but that birds, even common ones like the sparrow and finch, could slice the color red into a dozen shades. Their world was richer in color than some of the greatest paintings.Lisa tried to sketch the scene quickly before it disappeared: First the egrets would fly away, then the rainbow fade, and finally the deposit of rain sink into the earth.Its so beautiful, she remarked.A black-and-white calf ambled out from between the rusty tractors. Splattered with mud, it moved with a heavy sway toward the water. The calf stopped, then raised its heavy head to Lisa, as if saying, Go aheaddraw me. It lowered its gaze to turn and present a mournful profile, spittle hanging from its mouth. Oh, Lisa let out, and added the cow to the scene. She made a face when she heard the telephone ring.
