Answer:
Ordinary loss = $50,000
Short-term capital loss = $0
Long-term capital loss = $22,990
Explanation:
a. Computation of total loss
Total loss = Acquisition cost - Sales proceeds = $81,100 - $8,110 = $72,990
b. Determination of ordinary loss
Ordinary loss = $50,000
This is because for a single, ordinary loss is limited to $50,000 for stock classified as 1244.
c. Determination of short-term capital loss
Short-term capital loss = $0
Short-term capital loss is $0 because the share was held for more than one year before it was resold.
d. Computation of long-term capital loss
Long-term capital loss = Total loss - Ordinary loss = $72,990 - $50,000 = $22,990
A local grocery store buys USDA A grade pork at the wholesale price of $4 per pound and sells at the retail price of $7 per pound. The grocery store orders once per week. There is no chance to reorder during the week. The meat is good to be sold for one week. Unsold meat have to be dumped (Throw away to regular trash bin is not acceptable, it is hazardous material) at the cost of $0.5 per pound. The weekly demand is uncertain and has a discrete distribution:______.
Demand Probability 300 0.25 400 0.25 500 0.25 600 0.254
How many pounds of meat should be order per week? What is the expected weekly profit?
Answer:
$1,012.5
Explanation:
Cu = Retail price - Wholesale price = $7 - $4 = $3
Co = Wholesale price + Dumping cost = $4 + $0.5 = $4.5
Critical ratio = Cu/(Cu+Co) = 3/(3+4.5) = 0.4
Demand Probability Cumulative probability
300 0.25 0.25
400 0.25 0.50
500 0.25 0.75
600 0.25 1.00
Corresponding demand is 400. Optimal order quantity = 400 pounds
Expected demand = 300*0.25+400*0.25+500*0.25+600*0.25
Expected demand = 450 pounds
Expected shortage = (500-400)*0.25+(600-400)*0.25
Expected shortage = 75
Expected sales = Expected demand - Expected shortage
Expected sales = 450 - 75
Expected sales = 375 pounds
Expected inventory = Order quantity - Expected sales
Expected inventory = 400 - 375
Expected inventory = 25 pounds
Expected weekly profit = Expected sales * Cu - Expected inventory * Co
Expected weekly profit = 375*3 - 25*4.5
Expected weekly profit = $1,012.5
Early in 2018, Robbinsville Press was organized with authorization to issue 100,000 shares of $100 par value preferred stock and 500,000 shares of $1 par value common stock.

is considering an investment project that generates a cash flow of $33,000 next year if the economy is favorable but generates only $12,000 if the economy is unfavorable. The probability of favorable economy is 60% and of unfavorable economy is 40%. The project will last only one year and be closed after that. The cost of investment is $25,000 and the company plans to finance the project with $8,000 of equity and $17,000 of debt. Assuming the discount rates of both equity and debt are 0%. What is the expected cash flow to the company's shareholders if the company invests in the project
Answer:
Net cash flow to shareholders = -400
Explanation:
The probability of favorable economy is 60%
The probability unfavorable economy is 40%.
The cost of investment is $25,000
finance the project with $8,000 of equity $17,000 of debt.
Solution:
Net cash flow to shareholders = expected cash flow generated - cost of investment
Expected cash flow generated next year = 33000 * 0.6 + 12000 * 0.4
Expected cash flow generated next year = 19800 + 4800
Expected cash flow generated next year = 24600
Given cost of investment = 25000
Net cash flow to shareholders = (expected cash flow generated - cost of investment)
Net cash flow to shareholders = 24600 - 25000
Net cash flow to shareholders = -400
Identify some of the changes that can be implemented (or already have been) to a business model/process to enable such a fast setup time (including product design, having replacements available where and when needed, devoting human resources to the task, using automation, etc.). If not from a product or company, think about processes that you do in your daily lives.
Explanation:
In a logistics company, for example, automation is an essential need for improving the speed of business processes. Assuming that the company is a carrier that delivers products from an online site, the use of information technologies as a platform where the entrances and exits are identified, will make the processes faster and more organized.
Other suggestions would be the online monitoring of automobiles, which would avoid detours, increase safety and speed as well.
Automation in logistics increases speed, decreases costs, reduces errors and provides greater security and reliability to processes.
please can see answer this fast. Briefly explain how the market mechanism relieves excess demand.
Answer:
The decrease in supply creates an excess demand at the initial price. a. Excess demand causes the price to rise and quantity demanded to decrease. ... A decrease in demand and an increase in supply will cause a fall in equilibrium price, but the effect on equilibrium quantity cannot be determined.

In March 2010, Hertz Pain Relievers bought a massage machine that provided a return of 8 percent. It was financed by debt costing 7 percent. In August, Mr. Hertz came up with a heating compound that would have a return of 14 percent. The chief financial officer, Mr. Smith, told him it was impractical because it would require the issuance of common stock at a cost of 16 percent to finance the pur-chase. Is the company following a logical approach to using its cost of capital?
Answer: No they are not
Explanation:
When using the Cost of Capital approach, it is best that the company use the Weighted Average Cost of Capital(WACC). This would require considering the various capital sources available to the company and their cost instead of the cost of one capital source.
This is because, the availability of various sources of capital are sometimes contingent on others and this is the underlying principle of WACC. When the cost of this equity to be issued and other sources of capital are weighted, the heating compound might then give a better return than the cost.
A currency speculator expects the spot rate of British Pounds (GBP) to change from $2.00 to $2.20 in 6-months. Assume the speculator has access to credit lines of USD 20,000,000 in the US and GBP 10,000,000 in UK. The annual borrowing and lending rates are 6 percent in US and 4 percent in UK. In order for the speculator to take advantage from the expected spot rate change in GBP, it should
Answer:
Borrow in dollars then at spot rate convert money to british pound. Invest in the pounds for half a year and convert back to dollars.
Explanation:
Access to credit = $20000000
We do a conversion to pounds
= 20000000/2
= £10000000
When this is invested for 6 months
10000000 x 1 +4% x6/12
= 10000000(1+0.04*0.5)
= 10000000x1.02
= 10200000
We then make a conversion back to dollars
10200000 x 2.2
= 22,440,000 dollars
Loan to be repaid
20000000(1+6%x6/12)
= 20000000 x 1 +0.06*0.5
= 20000000 x 1.03
= 20,600,000
Then arbitrage profit = 22440000 - 20600000
= 1840000
A year ago, you graduated from college and decided to open your own computer software company. Over the past year, your firm generated $500,000 in revenue. You hired two software engineers and paid each of them $150,000 over the past year. You also purchased computer equipment that cost a total of $30,000. To save money, you decided to use the basement of your house for the business. Previously, you had rented this space to a tenant for $6,000 per year. Instead of opening your own business, you could have gone to work for Microsoft and earned $200,000 over the past year.
Required:
a. What were your accounting profits of your firm over the past year?
b. What were the economic profits of your firm over the past?
Answer:
170,000
$-36,000
Explanation:
Accounting profit= total revenue - explicit cost
Total revenue =price x quantity sold
Explicit cost includes the amount expended in running the business. They include rent , salary and cost of raw materials
Economic profit = accounting profit - implicit cost
Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives
Accounting profit = $500,000 - [( $150,000 x 2) + $30,000] = $170,000
Economic profit = $170,000 - ($200,000 + $6000) = -36,000
A registered representative at a member firm only deals in stocks and other equity investments. The registered representative helps an associate at that firm negotiate an underwriting of municipal bonds with a municipal issuer official that he knows very well from other business dealings. He does this as a 1-time event and is paid a finder's fee for his help. Which statement is TRUE?
a. the registered representative is considered to be a municipal finance professional and is subject to the political contribution rule.
b. an "mfp" - a municipal finance professional - is an associated person who solicits business from municipal issuers, renders financial advisory services to municipal issuers, or who performs research or writes reports on municipal issues.
c. because the representative was paid a finder's fee for get the municipal underwriting business from the issuer, that registered representative is defined as an mfp and comes under the $250 political contribution limit.
Answer: a. the registered representative is considered to be a municipal finance professional and is subject to the political contribution rule.
Explanation:
Municipal Finance Professionals are people who offer financial services to municipal issuers by soliciting business for them, advising them on financial matters and even performing research for them for which the MFP will be paid.
As the registered representative was paid a fee for helping negotiate an underwriting of municipal bonds, it can be said that he offered financial services to the municipal issuer and so is an MFP. As such, he is under the $250 political contribution limit that an MFP is subject to.
RapidMeal Co. has two restaurants that are open 24 hours per day. Fixed costs for the two restaurants together totals $450,000 per year. Service varies from a cup of coffee to full meals. The average sales check for each customer is $8.00. The average cost of food and other variable costs for each customer is $3.20. The income tax rate is 30%. Target net income is $105,000.
a. Determine the revenues needed to obtain the target net income.
b. How many sales checks are needed to (a) earn a net income of $105,000 and (b) to break even?
c. Determine net income if the number of sales checks is 150,000.
Answer:
a) 1000000 , b) 125000 & 93750 , c) 270000
Explanation:
Target Net profit = 105000
Let profit before tax be p
So, p - 30%p = 105000
0.70p = 105000
p = 150000
Total Net profit = Total revenue - Total cost
Average net profit = Average revenue - average cost. Let no. of customers, or sales checks =x
Total profit / x = 8 - (450000/ x + 3.2)
150000/ x = 8 - 3.2 - 450000/x
150000/x = 4.8 - 450000/x
x (no. of customers needed) = 125000 [b]
a] Total revenue needed = Average revenue x no. of customers needed
= 125000 x 8 = 1000000
b] Customers needed for break even {where TR = TC}
8x = 450000 + 3.2x
x = 93750
c] Net Income if sales checks is 150000 = TR - TC
= 150000 (8) - 450000 - 3.2 (150000) = 1200000 - 450000 - 480000
= 270000

Answer:
b. a rule which requires a company to adjust the cost of its inventory when the market price decreases below the cost.
Explanation:
LCM means lower of cost or market value. It is a rule under which the value of inventory is adjusted to lower of cost or market value. Also, it is a rule which requires a company to adjust the cost of its inventory when the market price decreases below the cost.
Hence, the correct option is a rule which requires a company to adjust the cost of its inventory when the market price decreases below the cost.
Your firm is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The company bought some land six years ago for $4.6 million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but the company has since decided to rent these facilities from a competitor instead. If the land were sold today, the company would net $5.4 million. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $11.2 million to build, and the site requires $713,900 worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project
Answer:
the proper cash flow amount is -$17,313,900
Explanation:
The computation of the proper cash flow amount is given below:
= Land value + plant cost + grading cost
= -$5,400,000 - $11,200,000 - $713,900
= -$17,313,900
Hence, the proper cash flow amount is -$17,313,900

Suppose that production for good X is characterized by the following production function, Q = K0.5L0.5, where K is the fixed input in the short run. If the per-unit rental rate of capital, r, is $15 and the per-unit wage, w, is $5, then the average fixed cost of using 16 units of capital and 25 units of labor is:
Answer:
B). $12
Explanation:
As per the given data, the AFC(Average Fixed Cost) for employing 25 factors of labor and 16 factors of capital would be $12.
We are given the production function,
Q = [tex]K^{0.5} L^{0.5}[/tex]
where,
K = allotted input in short-term
Rental rate of each unit/factor(r) = $15
Wage per factor(w) = $5
As we know, the two inputs are labor, as well as, capital;
To find AFC, we need TC;
so,
TC = (Fixed cost + Variable cost)
TC = (240(15 * 16) + 125(25 * 5) = 365
Thus,
AFC = $ 12

In 5 years time, you will have $4,697.04.
An unlevered firm has a cost of capital of 16.7 percent and earnings before interest and taxes of $489,602. A levered firm with the same operations and assets has face value of debt of $650,000 with a coupon rate of 7.5 percent that sells at par. The applicable tax rate is 35 percent. What is the value of the levered firm
Answer:
$2,133,136.53
Explanation:
Calculation for value of the levered firm
First step is to calculate the VU
VU= [$489,602 × (1 - .35)] / .167
VU= $1,905,636.53
Now let calculate the value of the levered firm
VL= $1,905,636.53 + .35($650,000)
VL= $2,133,136.53
Therefore the value of the levered firm is $2,133,136.53
Spindler, Inc. (a U.S.-based company), imports surfboards from a supplier in Brazil and sells them in the United States. Purchases are denominated in terms of the Brazilian real (BRL). During 2020, Spindler acquires 400 surfboards at a price of BRL 1,600 per surfboard, for a total of BRL 640,000.00. Spindler will pay for the surfboards when it sells them. Relevant exchange rates are as follows:
Date U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real (BRL)

b. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on December 1, 2020, and made payment on March 1, 2021. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 and 2021?
c. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on September 1, 2020, and made payment on March 1, 2021. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 and in 2021?
Answer:
a. The effect on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange gain of $6,400.
b-1. The effecton reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange loss of -$12,800.
b-1. The effect on reported income in 2021 is a foreign exchange gain of $9,600.
c-1. The effect on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange loss of -$6,400.
c-1. The effect on reported income in 2021 is a foreign exchange gain of $9,600.
Explanation:
a. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on September 1, 2020, and made payment on December 1, 2020. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020?
Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 is higher than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange gain calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange gain on 31-Dec-20 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.24 - $0.23) = $6,400
b. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on December 1, 2020, and made payment on March 1, 2021. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 and 2021?
b-1. Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Dec-20 is lower than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange loss calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange loss on 31-Dec-20 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-De-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.23 - $0.25) = -$12,800
b-2. Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20 is higher than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Mar-21, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2021 is a foreign exchange gain calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange gain on 31-Mar-21 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Dec-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Mar-21) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.25 - $0.235) = $9,600
c. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on September 1, 2020, and made payment on March 1, 2021. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 and in 2021?
c-1. Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 is lower than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange loss calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange loss on 31-Dec-20 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.24 - $0.25) = -$6,400
c-2. Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20 is higher than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Mar-21, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2021 is a foreign exchange gain calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange gain on 31-Mar-21 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Dec-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Mar-21) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.25 - $0.235) = $9,600
Kingston Company, which needs 10,000 units of a certain part to be used in its production cycle, can make or buy the part. If Kingston buys the part from Utica Company, Kingston could not use the released facilities in another manufacturing activity within the coming year. 60% of the fixed overhead applied will continue regardless of which decision option is chosen. The following per-unit cost information to make the part by Kingston is available: Direct materials $ 37 Direct labor 148 Variable overhead 74 Fixed overhead applied 93 $ 352 Cost to buy the part from Utica Company $ 85 In deciding whether to make or buy the part, Kingston's total relevant cost to make the part would be:
Answer: $2,962,000
Explanation:
60% of the fixed overhead cannot be avoided which means that only 40% can be avoided. This is the amount to include in the analysis.
To make 10,000 units, the cost would be:
= Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable Overhead + Fixed overhead applied
= (10,000 * 37) + ( 10,000 * 148) + (10,000 * 74) + (10,000 * 93 * 40%)
= 370,000 + 1,480,000 + 740,000 + 372,000
= $2,962,000
Congress adopted a law to provide insurance to protect wheat farmers. The agency in charge of the program adopted regulations to govern applications for this insurance. These regulations were published in the Federal Register. Mary applied for insurance but his application did not comply with the regulations. She claimed she was not bound by the regulations because she never knew they had been adopted. Is she bound by the regulations?
Answer:
She is bound by the regulations.
Explanation:
It is Mary's duty to know if the insurance regulations published in the Federal Register have been adopted by Congress. The purpose of using the Federal Register is to inform US citizens of all pending legislations. The publication in the Federal Register is, therefore, considered as a sufficient legal requirement for compliance with public notices.

You have purchased a put option on Pfizer common stock. The option has an exercise price of $53 and Pfizer’s stock currently trades at $55. The option premium is $0.80 per contract. a. What is your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price does not change over the life of the option? b. What is your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option?
Answer:
A. -0.80
B. 2.20
Explanation:
A. Calculation for your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price does not change over the life of the option
Net profit per share=max(53-55,0)-0.80
Net profit per share=0-0.80
Net profit per share=-0.80
Therefore your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price does not change over the life of the option is -0.80
b. Calculation for your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option
Net profit per share
=max(53-50,0)-0.80
Net profit per share=3-0.80
Net profit per share=2.20
Therefore your net profit on the option if Pfizer’s stock price falls to $50 and you exercise the option is 2.20

Answer:
Find answers below.
Explanation:
Gross Domestic Products (GDP) is the measure of the total market value of all finished goods and services made within a country during a specific period.
Simply stated, GDP is a measure of the total income of all individuals in an economy and the total expenses incurred on the economy's output of goods and services in a particular country.
Basically, the four (4) major expenditure categories of GDP are consumption (C), investment (I), government purchases (G), and net exports (N).
Furthermore, the different types of gross domestic product are;
1. Gross national product (GNP): the market value of all final goods and services produced by resources owned by citizens of a particular country in a given year.
2. Real GDP: GDP adjusted to base year prices
3. GDP per capita: GDP divided by population
4. GDP PPP (purchasing power parity): GDP adjusted for differences in the cost of living in different countries.
5. Nominal GDP: the market value of all final goods and services produced by resources located in a particular country in a given year

Hawley owned a Buick, and occasionally had work done on it at the Hoff Garage. One day he drove up with a flat tire, parked his car beside the garage, and called to Hoff that he had a flat tire and would be back in an hour. Hoff fixed the tire. Hawley refused to pay, saying that he had intended doing the job himself. (a) Was there a contract? Explain. (b) Suppose Hoff also adjusted the carburetor and straightened a fender. Could he recover for this? Explain
Answer:
A. Yes. Implicit contract
B. No he cannot
Explanation:
A. From what happened there seemed to be an implied contract between these two people. Although this contract was not done formally, given past situations, an implied contract was formed over time. Hoff felt hawley had dropped the car off for repair given that he usually did this. Hawley cannot make a case that he was going to fix it himself.
B. Hoff cannot recover for the carburetor or fender because the question did not say hawley asked him to do so. If he did it without consent then there is no recovery.
11. If you want to have a return for your Final Portfolio (that is invested between Optimal Risky portfolio and Risk Free Security) of 1.10%, what would be your allocation between Optimal 2-stock risky portfolio and risk free security
Answer:
Answer is explained in the explanation section.
Explanation:
Note: First of all, this question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to calculate this question. However, I have found the similar question on the internet with complete data given. Additionally, I have shared that data as well in the attachment below for your convenience, Thanks.
Solution:
SD = Standard Deviation
Using utility function, E(R) = Rp - 0.005 x A x [tex]SD^{2}[/tex] = 1.34 - 0.005 x 3x [tex]4.06^{2}[/tex]
Using utility function, E(R) = 1.093%
If the weight in the risky portfolio is let's say, "a" then,
weight in the risk-free asset = 1 - a
So,
E(R) = a x Rp + (1 - a) x Rf
1.093% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.50%
Solving for "a"
a = 70.56% - weight in risky portfolio
and 1 - a = 29.44% - weight in risk-free asset.
Similarly, if you want a return of 1.10%,
we can follow the above steps and get
1.1% = a x 1.34% + (1 - a) x 0.5%
Weight in risky portfolio,
a = 71.43%
weight in risk-free asset,
1 - a = 28.57%
