Answer:
Current GDP (both total & contributed by women) has increased. However GDP in 1950 was under estimated.
Explanation:
GDP is the total value of goods & services produced by an economy, during a given period of time. It doesn't include value of qualitative family care services, done by women.
So GDP in 1950, not including value of women's family care work would have been an under estimation of total GDP & women's contribution to GDP also.
After 1950, when women shift from house work not accounted in GDP to outside work accounted in GDP, GDP & women's contribution to GDP both rise.
"Cullumber, Inc., stock has a beta of 1.30. If the expected market return is 15.0 percent and the risk-free rate is 4.0 percent, what does CAPM indicate the appropriate expected return for Cullumber stock is? (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 52.75.)"
Answer:
14.4%
Explanation:
Using CAPM,
The Expected return = Risk free rate + Market return - Risk free rate * Beta
The Expected return = 4.0 % + 15%-4.0%*1.30
The Expected return = 4.0 % + 9.0%*1.30
The Expected return = 0.04+ (0.08*1.30)
The Expected return = 0.04 + 0.104
The Expected return = 0.144
The Expected return = 14.4%
M11-2 (Algo) Computing the Number of Unissued Shares LO11-1 The balance sheet for Ronlad Corporation reported 172,000 shares outstanding, 270,000 shares authorized, and 22,000 shares in treasury stock. How many shares have been issued
Answer: 194,000 shares
Explanation:
Shares are issued from the number of shares authorized. The company can then decided to repurchase some of these issued shares and make them treasury stock.
Issued shares will therefore be the sum of shares outstanding and treasury shares
= 172,000 + 22,000
= 194,000 shares

In fast food employee turnover is around 150 percent. Since it takes 6 months to train a new employee, that means most employees leave shortly after they get fully trained. One strategy to reduce or slow turnover is:
Answer:
Link compensation and benefits to the years of work.
Explanation:
High Staff turnover is a problem which modern day businesses face. The employees switch to other companies which pays them more money or offers more benefits than current employment. In fast food chain employees turnover is very high. It cost high to train a new employee so the benefits that a company offers to its employees should be linked to their performance and years of stay at the organization.
Feedback control systems are (A) insensitive to both forward- and feedback-path parameter changes (B) less sensitive to feedback-path parameter changes than to forward-path parameter changes (C) less sensitive to forward-path parameter changes than to feedback-path parameter changes (D) equally sensitive to forward- and feedback-path parameter changes
Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Feedback plays an important role in order to improve the performance of the control systems. Feedback control system can be positive and negative but positive feedback systems less widely used as the positive feedback systems are more sensitive to parameter variations but negative feedback are less sensitive to change in G than a change in H.

Since the negative result of the lawsuit is extremely high, Sea Green Enterprises will probably be liquidated:
If it is a C corporation:
Sea Green will have to pay $725,000 (net assets)Its owners owe nothingIf it is an S corporation (similar to C corporation):
Sea Green will have to pay $725,000 (net assets)Its owners owe nothingIf it is a partnership:
Sea Green will have to pay $725,000 (net assets)Its owners will owe the rest = $4,000,000 - $725,000 = $3,275,000If it is a sole proprietorship:
Sea Green will have to pay $725,000 (net assets)Its owner will owe the rest = $4,000,000 - $725,000 = $3,275,000Owners of sole proprietorships and partnerships are personally liable for all the business debts. While owners of S or C corporations are not personally liable for any of the business's debts.
A manager has determined that a potential new product can be sold at a price of $33.50 each. The cost to produce the product is $26.00, but the equipment necessary for production must be leased for $160,000 per year. What is the break-even point
Answer:
the break-even point in units is 21,333 units
Explanation:
The computation of the break even point in units is shown below:
Break even point in units is
= Fixed cost ÷ contribution margin per unit)
= $160,000 ÷ ($33.50 - $26)
= $160,000 ÷ $7.5
= 21,333 units
Hence, the break-even point in units is 21,333 units
And, the same is to be considered
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct units could come

How do the dynamics of the communication process shift when we move from decision- making among individuals in an organization to collaboration among multiple organizations or groups
Explanation:
The dynamics of the communication process in an organization occurs according to its structure, communication networks and technologies, can occur in a formal and informal way, through intelligent systems, telephone, meetings, in a vertical, horizontal and diagonal manner, to maintain the hierarchy that each company adopts in its processes.
Therefore, when there is collaboration between several organizations or groups, the dynamics of the communication process occurs with an organization and specific regulations, which are not the same as those that occur in the company's internal environment.
Communication is essential for the company to organize itself and the flow of information to take place effectively, and all employees have access to policies, essential information, strengthening of relationships, feedback, etc.
Through internal and external communication, the company positions itself, exchanges information that will assist in reaching its objectives and goals, builds a network, etc.

Calculate the Equivalent Uniform Annual Benefit (EUAB) for the cash flow below for interest rate of 10%
Answer:
The Equivalent Uniform Annual Benefit (EUAB) is 2,220.52.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question.
The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:
Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the total present values of cash flow (in bold red color).
Equivalent Uniform Annual Benefit (EUAB) refers to an annual benefit or cash flow that is obtained by converting any cash flow to an equivalent uniform cash flow.
From the question, the diagram indicates that the amount of the annual cash flows from year 1 to year 80 is $2,000, except for years 10 and 40 which are 7,000 and 15,000 respectively (in bold blue color in the attached excel file).
Because of years 10 and 40 which are 7,000 and 15,000, we first calculate the present value of all the annual cash flows from year 1 to 80 (in bold red color in the attached excel file).
From the attached excel file, we have:
Total present value of cash flows = 22,205.19
The annuity factor is calculated using the annuity formula as follows:
Annuity factor = ((1-(1/(1 + r))^n)/r) …………… (1)
Where;
r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10
n = number of years = 80
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Annuity factor = ((1-(1/(1 + 0.10))^80) / 0.10)
Annuity factor = 9.9951181414995
Approximating to 2 decimal places, we have:
Annuity factor = 10.00
The Equivalent Uniform Annual Benefit (EUAB) can therefore now be calculate using the formula for calculating the Equivalent Uniform Annual Benefit (EUAB) as follows:
EUAB = Total present value of cash flows / Annuity factor ……………. (2)
Substituting the values into equation (2), we have:
EUAB = 22,205.19 / 10.00
EUAB = 2,220.52
Therefore, the Equivalent Uniform Annual Benefit (EUAB) is 2,220.52.
Omnidata uses the annualized income method to determine its quarterly federal income tax payments. It had $100,000, $50,000, and $90,000 of taxable income for the first, second, and third quarters, respectively ($240,000 in total through the first three quarters). What is Omnidata's annual estimated taxable income as of the end of the third quarter
Answer:
$300,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the annual estimated taxable income as of the end of the third quarter
Using this formula
Annual estimated taxable income=2 × (First quarter taxable income + Second quarter taxable income)
Let plug in the formula
Annual estimated taxable income=2 x ($100,000 + $50,000 )
Annual estimated taxable income=2×$150,000
Annual estimated taxable income=$300,000
Therefore the annual estimated taxable income as of the end of the third quarter will be $300,000
What is the duration of a four-year Treasury bond with a 10 percent semiannual coupon selling at par
Answer:
the formula to calculate modified duration of bonds:
modified duration = [1 - (1 + y)⁻ⁿ] / y
since this bond pays semiannual interest,
modified duration = [1 - (1 + 5%)⁻⁸] / 5%
modified duration = (1 - 1.05⁻⁸) / 5% = 6.4632 semiannual periods
modified duration in years = 6.4632 / 2 = 3.2316 years
if you want to determine the Macaulay duration = modified duration x (1 + yield) = 3.2316 years x 1.05 = 3.39318 years
For financial reporting purposes, what is the total amount of product costs incurred to make 5,000 units
Answer: $80,500
Explanation:
Product Costs = Fixed Costs + Variable costs
Variable product cost = 5,000 units * (Direct materials + direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead )
= 5,000 * (5.30 + 4.4 + 2.00)
= $58,500
Product Costs = 22,000 + 58,500
= $80,500
It costs Bramble Corp. $12 of variable and $5 of fixed costs to produce one bathroom scale which normally sells for $35. A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 4300 scales at $15 each. Bramble would incur special shipping costs of $1 per scale if the order were accepted. Bramble has sufficient unused capacity to produce the 4300 scales. If the special order is accepted, what will be the effect on net income
Answer:
Effect on income= $8,600 increase
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Unitary variable cost= 12 + 1= $13
Units sold= 4,300
Selling price= $15
Because it is a special offer, and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.
Effect on income= units sold*unitary contribution margin
Effect on income= 4,300*(15 - 13)
Effect on income= $8,600 increase
A company has 200,000 shares of 8% preferred stock with $10 par in its capital structure. The preferred stock currently sells for $15. The company has a tax rate of 40%. Ignore flotation costs. The cost of preferred stock used in WACC will be:
Answer:
the cost of preferred stock is 5.33%
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of preferred stock is shown below:
The cost of preferred stock is
= (Par value × dividend rate) ÷ (Share price)
= ($10 × 8%) ÷ ($15)
= ($0.8) ÷ ($15)
= 5.33%
Hence, the cost of preferred stock is 5.33%
The same is to be considered
We simply applied the above formula so that the correct cost could come

Suppose you held a well-diversified portfolio with a very large number of securities, and that the single index model holds. If the σ of your portfolio was 0.18 and σM was 0.22, the β of the portfolio would be approximately:_______
a. 0.74.
b. 0.80.
c. 1.25.
d. 1.56.
Answer:
B. 0.80
Explanation:
A well diversified portfolio can be regarded as one which has different securities with their weight been small. Since the single index holds,
The single-index model (SIM) by William Sharpe, is a model that that provides the risk as well as the returns of stock.
Given:
the σ of your portfolio = 0.18
σM = 0.22,
the β of the portfolio= the σ of your portfolio/σM
the β of the portfolio==0.18/0.22
= 0.82
Therefore, the β of the portfolio would be approximately 0.80
During the month of July, Clanton Industries issued a check in the amount of $723 to a supplier on account. The check did not clear the bank during July. In preparing the July 31 bank reconciliation, the company should:______.
A. Deduct the check amount from the book balance of cash.
B. Add the check amount to the book balance of cash.
C. Adam Deduct the check amount from the bank balance.
D. Add the check amount to the bank balance.
E. Make a journal entry in the company records for an error.
Answer: C. Deduct the check amount from the bank balance.
Explanation:
This is an outstanding check which means that it has reflected as a reduction in the book balance but not in the bank balance.
The way to reconcile it therefore is to deduct it from the bank balance that way it will reduce the bank balance the same way it had reduced the book balance.

22. You decide finance a $12,000 car at 3% compounded monthly for 4 years. What will your monthly payments be
Answer:
$265.60
Explanation:
P0 = d(1 - (1+i/k)^-nk / (n/k) (Formula as attached to the question)
P0 = $12,000
i = 0.03
k = 12
n = 4
12,000 = d( 1 - (1+0.03/12)^-4*12) / (0.03/12)
1000 * 0.03 = d(1 - (1.0025)^48
30 = d(1 - 0.997053263)
30 = d(0.112946737)
d = 30 / 0.112946737
d = 265.6119229
d = $265.6
Hence, the monthly payment will be $265.60

Given a perfectly competitive market structure, a firm's total fixed costs are $195, average variable costs are $4, marginal revenue is $6, and the quantity demanded is 65. Assuming the firm is a profit maximizer, what are the firm's total profits
Answer: -$65
Explanation:
The following can be deuced from the question:
Revenue: $6 × $65 = $390
Less: Variable cost = $4 × $65 = $260.
Contribution = $390 - $260 = $130
Less: fixed cost = $195
Firms profit/loss will be:
= $130 - $195
= -$65
The firm is making a loss of $65.
