James Smith, a health inspector for the state of Missouri, inspected a restaurant owned by Salley Slick. Smith found numerous health violations in the restaurant and fined Slick accordingly. When Smith notified Slick of the infractions, Smith strongly suggested that $5,000 "would sure prove handy in the Spring" when he planned to purchase a new fishing boat. Slick understood Smith's obvious hint and offered Smith $5,000 if he would lose the paperwork concerning the failure of the restaurant to meet proper inspection guidelines. Smith accepted the $5,000 and lost the paperwork. One month later, Smith returned to the restaurant and told Slick that he would reappear every month and find violations unless Slick produced $1,000 each month to go toward the purchase of a fleet for Smith. Slick agreed to make the $1,000 payments. What crimes have been committed by Smith and Slick?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Smith is guilty of Bribery and corruption While slick is guilty of breaking health code and trying to bribe a public officer.

Explanation:

Bribery has occurred because Smith's judgment has been paid for/influenced through the $5000 he has received from Slick. Money he plans to use on a boat. Smith has solicitated a bribe and is guilty of bribery. Since he sought for the bribe, he has committed a crime of bribery solicitation. After receiving the money, he committed the crime of accepting a bribe. When additional sums of money were requested, Smith further committed the crime of extortion and blackmail. He has been shown to be greedy.

Slick is guilty of trying to bribe a public official to escape the payment of fines and also guilty of violating health codes.

Answers

Answer:

The multiple choices are :

a.$8

b.$20

c.$22

d.$45

The correct option is C.$22

Explanation:

The earnings accruing to the selling group is the selling concession of $22 per $5,000 per bond.

Option A is obviously wrong as there is nothing in the questions that suggest earnings of $8 per bond for the selling group.

Option D is wrong as well because $45 per bond is the spread  which is the extra yield to bondholders when compared to investment in government securities

Recommend a product offering to Lily Products Company, based on the cash payback period for each product line. b. Why is one product line preferred over the other, even though they both have the same total net cash flows through eight periods?

Answers

Answer:

Liquid soap

B. The liquid soap would be chosen because its pay back period is shorter than that of the body lotion.

even though both projects have the same total cash flows, the liquid soap project has greater cash flows in the ealier years compared to the other project. This makes the amount invested to be recovered more quickly and this makes it more desirable.

Explanation:

Cash payback period measures how long it takes for the amount invested in a project to be recovered from the cumulative cash flow.

Cash payback for the liquid soap.

Amount invested = $-540,000

In the first year , the amount recovered = $- 540,000 + $170,000 = $-370,000

In the second year , the amount recovered = $-370,000 + 150,000  = $-220,000

In the third year , the amount recovered = $- 220,000 + 120,000 =$ -100,000

In the 4th year, the amount recovered = $ -100,000 + $100,000 =0

The total amount invested is recovered In the 4th year

Cash payback period for the body option =

Amount invested / net cash flows

$540,000 / $90,000 = 6 years

The amount invested is recovered In the 6th year

The liquid soap would be chosen because its pay back period is shorter than that of the body lotion.

even though both projects have the same total cash flows, the liquid soap project has greater cash flows in the ealier years compared to the other project. This makes the amount invested to be recovered more quickly and this makes it more desirable.

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $5,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Job 731:

Direct Materials= $2,500

Direct Labor hours= 100

Direct Labor wage rate: $10.00 per hour

First, we need to calculate the direct labor cost and then allocate overhead:

Direct labor= 100*10= $1,000

Allocated overhead= 1,000*1.5= $1,500

Total cost= 2,500 + 1,000 + 1,500

Total cost= $5,000

B. $7,600,000
C. $12,150,000
D. $12,000,000

Answers

Answer:

Instructions are below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The current market price of the electric wire is $770 per unit.

The company has $3,000,000 in average assets, and the desired profit is a return of 5% on assets.

Sales volume 110,000 units per year

Variable costs $660 per unit

Fixed costs $14,000,000 per year

The company's objective is 5% of average assets. In this case, $150,000.

Total contribution margin= 110,000*110= 12,100,000

Fixed costs= (14,000,000)

Net operating profit= (1,900,000)

Target profit= 150,000

Target fixed costs= Contribution margin - target profit

Target fixed costs= 12,100,000 - 150,000= 11,950,000

Prove:

Total contribution margin= 110,000*110= 12,100,000

Fixed costs= (11,950,000)

Net operating profit= 150,000

It costs Garrison Company $9.50 of variable and $5.20 of fixed costs to produce one bathroom scale which normally sells for $19.70. A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 2,600 scales at $12.20 each. Garrison will incur special shipping costs of $1.70 per scale if the order is accepted. Garrison has sufficient unused capacity to accommodate the order. If the special order is accepted, what will be the effect on net income?

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $2,600 increase

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

It costs Garrison Company $9.50 of variable costs.

A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 2,600 scales at $12.20 each. Garrison will incur special shipping costs of $1.70 per scale if the order is accepted.

Because it a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs:

Effect on income= units sold*contribution margin per unit

Effect on income= 2,600*(12.2 - 9.5 - 1.7)

Effect on income= $2,600 increase

The following costs result from the production and sale of 1,000 drum sets manufactured by Tight Drums Company for the year ended December 31. 2019. The drum sets sell for $500 each. The company has a 25% income tax rate. For each dollar of sales, how much is left to cover fixed costs and contribute to operating income.

Answers

Answer:

$0.72

Explanation:

total direct materials = $125,000

total variable selling costs = $15,000

total variable costs = $140,000

variable cost per unit = $140,000 / 1,000 units = $140 per unit

contribution margin ratio = (sales price - variable cost) / sales price = ($500 - $140) / $500 = 72%

this means that per dollar of sales, $0.72 are left to cover fixed costs and contribute to operating income

The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $235,500. What is the company's net operating income? Select one: a. $374,400 b. $201,300 c. $609,900 d. ($34,200)

Answers

Answer:

Net income= -$34,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beta Division:

Sales= $580,000

Variable expenses= $301,600

Traceable fixed expenses of $186,500.

Income= 91,900

Alpha Division:

Sales of $510,000

Variable expenses of $178,500

Traceable fixed expenses of $222,100.

Income= 109,400

The total amount of common fixed expenses not traceable to the individual divisions is $235,500.

We need to deduct from the income of each division the not traceable fixed costs.

Net income= 91,900 + 109,400 - 235,500

Net income= -$34,200

Crystal Lighting Inc. produces and sells lighting fixtures. An entry light has a total cost of $80 per unit, of which $54 is product cost and $26 is selling and administrative expenses. In addition, the total cost of $80 is made up of $40 variable cost and $40 fixed cost. The desired profit is $55 per unit. Determine the markup percentage on product cost.

Answers

Answer:

Mark-up = 101.9%

Explanation:

Mark up is the percentage of the product cost that is made as profit. It is profit expressed as a percentage of the product cost.

Mark-up = profit/product cost × 100

Mark-up =  $55/54 × 100 =101.85%

Mark-up = 101.9%

Answer:

Explanation:

Mark up percentage = [ (desired profit ) + (Total selling and administrative expenses) ] / total product cost

Desired profit = $55

Total selling and administrative expenses = $26

Total cost = $80

($55 + $26)/80 = 1.0125

1.0125 - 1 = 0.0125 = 1.25%

Manitowoc Crane (U.S.) exports heavy crane equipment to several Chinese dock facilities. Sales are currently 16.000 units per year at the yuan equivalent of $25.000 each. the Chinese yuan (renminbi) has been trading at Yuan8.40/$, but a Hong Kong advisory service predicts the renminbi will drop in value next week to Yuan9.10/$, after which it will remain unchanged for at least a decade. Accepting this forecast as given, Manitowoc Crane faces a pricing decision in the face of the impending devaluation. It may either (1) maintain the same yuan price and in effect sell for fewer dollars, in which case Chinese volume will not change; or (2) maintain the same dollar price, raise the yuan price in China to offset the devaluation, and experience a 10% drop in unit volume Direct costs are 75% of the U.S. sales price. a. What would be the short-run (one-year) impact of each pricing strategy? Which do you recommend? If Manitowoc Crane maintains the same yuan price and same unit volume, what will be the firm's gross profits? (Round to the nearest dollar.) b. If Manitowoc Crane maintains the same dollar price, raises the yuan price in China to offset the devaluation, and experiences a 10% drop in unit volume, what will be the firm's gross profits? (Round to the nearest dollar.) Which do you recommend?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Yuan price before devaluation = 25000 × 8.4 = Y210,000  

Dollar price after devaluation = 210000/9.1 = $23,076.92  

Total sales = 16000 × 23076 = 369230720    

COGS = 16000 × 25000 × 75% = 300000000    

Gross profit 69230720    

Dollar price after devaluation = $25000    

Total sales = 16000 × 90% × 25000 = 360000000    

COGS = 16000*90%× 25000 ×75% = 270000000    

Gross profit 90000000    

b) Maintaining the same dollar price is better because it yields higher profits.

Answers

CEquilibrium shifts always more money being a lower

The order should be

1. As the fed buys bonds, new money enters the loanable funds market.

2. Market equilibrium shifts towards more money being lent at lower interest rates.  

3. The increased borrowing leads to increased investment and purchasing of goods and services

4. The aggregate demand curve shifts rightwards.

The following information should be considered:

In the case when the federal reserve should considered the expansionary monetary policy so it purchased the bonds from the open market. The banking system liquidity should increased but the lending rate is decreased. Now if the rate of interest is less so the spending in an investment should be increased.Due to this, it trigerred the economic growth and the aggregrate demand curve should be shifted to the right.

Powell Plastics, Inc. (PP) currently has zero debt. Its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $80,000, and it is a zero growth company. PP’s current cost of equity is 10%, and its tax rate is 40%. The firm has 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding selling at a price per share of $48.00. Assume that PP is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 35% debt and 65% equity. This results in a weighted average cost of capital equal to 9.4% and a new value of operations of $510,638. Assume PP raises $178,723 in new debt and purchases T-bills to hold until it makes the stock repurchase. PP then sells the T-bills and uses the proceeds to repurchase stock. How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?

Answers

Answer:

How many shares remain after the repurchase, and what is the stock price per share immediately after the repurchase?

6,500 stocks remaining at $64.33 each stock

Explanation:

EBIT $80,000

zero growth rate

Cost of equity (Re) 10%

tax rate 40%

10,000 common stocks outstanding at $48

they want to change from 100% equity to 35% debt and 65% equity

WACC = 9.4%

new value of operations $510,638

PP's value of operations = {$80,000 x (1 - 40%)} / WACC = $510,638

the new stock price should = $510,638 / 10,000 stocks = $51.06

Stock price will be $51.06

approximately $178,723 / $51.06 = 3,500 stocks should be repurchased

9.4% = ($480,000/$658,723 x 10%) + ($178,723/$658,723 x cost of debt x (1 - 40%)

9.4% = 7.29% + ($178,723/$658,723 x cost of debt x (1 - 40%)

2.11% = 0.2713 x cost of debt x 0.6

2.11% = 0.1628 x cost of debt

cost of debt = 2.11%/0.1628 = 12.96%

new WACC = ($178,710/$357,433 x 10%) + ($178,723/$357,433 x 12.96% x 0.6) = 5% + 6.48% = 11.48%

PP's value of operations = {$80,000 x 0.6} / 11.48% = $418,118

the new stock price should = $418,118 / 6,500 stocks = $64.33

So per Square foot expense for Utilities = $200,000 / 10,000 = 20 per square foot

(C) So, for Utilities having 1,500 square foot space, the cost allocated = 1,500 X 20 = $30,000

Adding all (A) + (B) + (C), the total expenses for Cystoscopy Department are

$350,000 + $500 + $30,000 = $380,500

The Cystoscopy Department's total expenses are $380,500

Carroll Corporation has two products, Q and P. During June, the company's net operating income was $19,500, and the common fixed expenses were $43,000. The contribution margin ratio for Product Q was 40%, its sales were $128,000, and its segment margin was $35,000. If the contribution margin for Product P was $33,000, the segment margin for Product P was:

Answers

Answer:

Segment margin of product P-$27,500.00  

Explanation:

The total company's segment margin is net income plus common fixed expenses.

Total segment margin=$19,500+$43,000=$62,500.00  

Total segment margin can be determined as the segment margin of products Q and P

Segment margin of product Q is $35,000

segment margin of product P=$62,500-$35,000=$ 27,500.00  

Hence ,the segment margin of product P is $ 27,500.00

Answers

Answer:

D. Proprietary funds must prepare a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position, Statement of Net Position and Statement of Cash Flows.

Explanation:

Remember, proprietary funds are still under the regulation of the IRS and thus are required to prepare account statements of their revenue, expenses, net position and cash flows.

This proprietary funds consist of a pool of money and assets owned by investors and customers and are usually managed by financial institutions such as a bank.

A municipal power plant uses natural gas from an existing, leaky, pipeline at an annual cost of $40,000 per year. A new pipeline would initially cost $100,000, but it would reduce the annual cost of natural gas to $10,000 per year. Assume an analysis period of 25 years and no salvage value for either pipeline. The interest rate is 6%. Using annual equivalent cost (AEC), should the new pipeline be built?

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We can calculate the annual equivalent cost by using following formula:-

Annual Equivalent Cost (AEC) = Initial Cost × [Interest Rate × (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years ÷  (1 + Interest Rate)^Number of years - 1} + Annual Cost Per Year

= $100,000 × [0.06 × (1 + 0.06)^25 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^25 - 1] + $10,000

= $100,000 × [0.06 × 4.291871 ÷ 4.291871 - 1] + $10,000

= $100,000 × [0.2575123 ÷ 3.291871] + $10,000

= $100,000 × 0.07823 + $10,000

= $7,823 + $10,000

= $17,823

According to the analysis, the annual cost of new pipeline $17,823 is less than 40,000. So the new pipeline should built.          

Rolf Steps is the production manager for a local manufacturing firm. This company produces staplers and other items. The annual demand for a particular stapler is 1,600 units. The holding cost is $2 per unit per year. The cost of setting up the production line is $25. There are 200 working days per year. The production rate for this product is 80 per day. If Rolf decided to produce 200 units each time he started production of the stapler, what would his maximum inventory level be

Answers

Answer:

His maximum inventory level would be 180 units

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

daily demand rate , d=1,600/200=8 units;

daily production rate p=80 units;

C0=25 dollar

Cc=2 dollar

Therefore, Qopt=√2*25*1,600/(2(1-8/80))

Qopt=210.82

But here Rolf decide to produce 200 units each time he started production, hence fix Q=200

Therefore, Maximum inventory level=200*(1-8/80)=200*0.9

Maximum inventory level=180 units

His maximum inventory level would be 180 units

Rolf Steps' maximum inventory level would be 126 units.

Data and Calculations:

Annual demand = 1,600 units

Holding costs = $2 per unit

Setup cost = $200 ($25 x 8)

Working days per year = 200 days

Production rate per day = 80 units

Number of setup = 8 setups (1,600/200)

Re-order quantity = square root of (2 x 1,600 x $200)/$2

= 566 units

Maximum Level = Re-order level + Re-order quantity – (Minimum usage × Minimum lead time)

= 200 + 566 - (80 x 8)

= 766 - 640

= 126 units

Answers

Answer: 2. Although the presentation was extremely long, it outlined the research, analyzed the data, and provided clear recommendations that will be useful in the future.

Explanation:

Parallel Sentences are constructed when you used the same grammatical form across the entire sentence. This way the sentence is balanced and easier to read.

For example, Sophia likes reading, hiking and watching television. As opposed to, Sophia likes reading, hiking and watch Television. The watch in the sentence is not using the grammatical form that is the present participle which is present in most of the sentence.

The correct sentence above therefore is the second one.

It uses the same form throughout the sentence by putting it in past tense.

Answer:

Determine the amount of Sales Revenue Sun Devil can recognize on Jan 1, 2019: $567,430

Determine the carrying value of the Note Receivable at December 31, 2021: $711,780

Determine the Total Interest Revenue Sun Devil will earn over the entire 5-year lending agreement: $1,308,114

Explanation:

the present value of the notes receivable = future value / (1 + 12%)⁵ or we can calculate using the annuity = $1,000,000 x 0.56743 = $567,430

the value of the note receivable 2 years later = future value / (1 + 12%)³ or again use the annuity = $1,000,000 x 0.71178 = $711,780

total interest revenue = ($1,000,000 x 8%) x annuity factor (2%, 20 payments) = $80,000 x 16.35143 = $1,308,114

Answers

Answer:

Overstatement of revenues and receivables and an understatement of inventory.

Explanation:

Invoicing in different occasions could be done for the case of inventory and reference purposes in the hands of both the salesman and buyer. Therefore on the case above, inadequate control could possibly cause overstatement of revenues and receivables and an understatement of inventory. It is also been observed that the sales invoice provides the seller with a record of what has been sold, whether the said transaction has been carried out or not and how much money is involved. This information is useful for internal company records and also to follow up with buyers for billing purposes.

If a Cournot duopolist announced that it will double its output A. the other firm will double output also. B. the other firm does not view the announcement as credible. C. the other firm will shut down. D. it becomes the leader.

Answers

Answer:

B) the other firm does not view the announcement as credible

Explanation:

The reason is that the other firm thinks that the announcing firm will make losses as it will not be able to sell the products in an imperfect market where both the firms have identical cost functions and knew all about the cost. So increasing the production when the demand is the same will decrease the price of the product and result in increased losses to the announcing company.

After graduating from college, you are hired by the Ford automobile company as an economic analyst. For your first project, you are asked to estimate what would happen to the sales of Ford Mustangs as a result of a change in (i) the price of a Chevrolet Camaro, (ii) the price of gasoline, and (iii) consumer incomes. You are given the following elasticities:________. 1. Price elasticity of demand for Ford Mustangs = -2.5 2. Cross-price elasticity between Ford Mustangs and Camaros = 1.5 3. Cross-price elasticity between Ford Mustangs and gasoline = -0.80 4. Income elasticity of demand for Ford Mustangs = 3.00

Answers

Answer:

1. if the price of Chevrolet Camaro increases, the demand for Ford Mustangs increases. Conversely, if the price of Chevrolet Camaro falls, the demand for Ford Mustangs falls.

2.If the price of gasoline increases, the demand for Ford Mustangs would fall and if the price of gasoline falls, the demand for Ford Mustangs would increase.

3. if income increases, demand for Ford Mustangs increases and if demand falls, demand for Ford Mustangs falls

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.

Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income.

If the absolute value of income elasticity of demand is greater than one, it means demand is elastic.

The income elasticity is given as 3 , it means that demand is elastic. So if income increases, demand for Ford Mustangs increases and if demand falls, demand for Ford Mustangs falls.

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

If cross price elasticity of demand is positive, it means that the goods are substitutes goods.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

If the cross price elasticitiy is negative, it means that the goods are complementary goods.

Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together

Because the cross price elasticity between Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustangs is positive, it means they are subsituite goods. So, if the price of Chevrolet Camaro increases, the demand for Ford Mustangs increases. Conversely, if the price of Chevrolet Camaro falls, the demand for Ford Mustangs falls.

Because the cross price elasticity of demand between gasoline and Ford Mustangs are negative, they are complementary goods.

If the price of gasoline increases, the demand for Ford Mustangs would fall and if the price of gasoline falls, the demand for Ford Mustangs would increase.
