Answer: $1,750
Explanation:
Incurring a health insurance cost of $5,000 or increasing salaries by $5,000 will have the same effect on the taxes because they will both be removed from the income before the taxes are calculated.
The reduction in tax in either case is:
= Expense * Tax rate
= 5,000 * 35%
= $1,750

13) Storico Co. just paid a dividend of $3.15 per share. The company will increase its dividend by 20 percent next year and then reduce its dividend growth rate by 5 percentage points per year until it reaches the industry average of 5 percent dividend growth, after which the company will keep a constant growth rate forever. If the required return on the company’s stock is 12 percent, what will a share of stock sell for today? (4 pts)
Answer:
$61.29
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what will a share of stock sell for today
First step is to calculate the price in Year 3
P3= $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)(1.05) / (.12 – .05)
P3= $5.020785/0.07
P3=$71.72
Now Let Calculate the price of stock today using the Present Value (PV) of the first three dividends in addition with the Present Value (PV) of the stock price in Year 3:
P0= $3.15(1.20)/(1.12) + $3.15(1.20)(1.15)/1.12^²+ $3.15(1.20)(1.15)(1.10)/1.12^³+ $71.72/1.12^³
P0=$3.78/1.12+$4.347/1.2544+$4.7817/1.404928+$71.72/1.404928
P0=$3.375+3.465+3.4035+$51.048
P0= $61.29
Therefore what will a share of stock sell for today is $61.29
The carrying value of bonds at maturity always equals: Multiple Choice the amount of discount or premium. the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds plus any unamortized discount or less any premium. the par value of the bond. the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds. the amount in excess of par value.
Answer: the par value of the bond
Explanation:
The carrying value of bonds at maturity will always be equal to the par value of the bond. The carrying value of a bond is simply refered to as the bond's face value or par value plus the premiums taht are unamortized.
We should note that during the time of maturity of the bond, there'll have been an ammortization of the discounts or premiums, while the bond's par value will be left.
The carrying value of bonds at maturity always equals to the amount of cash originally received in exchange for the bonds plus any unamortized discount or less any premium. Thus, option (b) is correct.
At maturity, bonds' carrying values will always be the same as their par values. The face value or par value of a bond plus any unamortized premiums are simply referred to as the bond's carrying value.
To put it another way, it is the total of a bond's face value, any unamortized premiums, and any unamortized discounts, if any. The par value, interest rate, and remaining maturity period of the bond must all be known before calculating the carrying value using the effective interest rate technique.
Therefore, option (b) is correct.

Equipment $350,000
Accumulated depreciation through 2018 165,000
During 2019, the following expenditures were incurred for the equipment:
Major overhaul of the equipment on January 1, 2019, that improved efficiency $42,000
Routine maintenance and repairs on the equipment 5,000
The equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over an estimated life of eight years with a $20,000 estimated residual value. The annual accounting period ends on December 31.
Required:
Record the adjusting entry for depreciation on the equipment during 2018.
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
The adjusting entry for depreciation on the equipment during 2018 will be calculated as:
Depreciation = (Equipment cost - Estimated residual value) / Estimated life
= ($350000 - $20000) / 8
= $41250

Mauro Products distributes a single product, a woven basket whose selling price is $28 per unit and whose variable expense is $23 per unit. The company’s monthly fixed expense is $9,500. Required: 1. Calculate the company’s break-even point in unit sales. 2. Calculate the company’s break-even point in dollar sales. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) 3. If the company's fixed expenses increase by $600, what would become the new break-even point in unit sales? In dollar sales? (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 9,500 / (28 - 23)
Break-even point in units= 1,900 units
To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 9,500 / (5 / 28)
Break-even point (dollars)= $53,200
Finally, the fixed costs increase to $10,100:
Break-even point in units= 10,100 / 5
Break-even point in units= 2,020 units
Break-even point (dollars)= 10,100 / (5/28)
Break-even point (dollars)= $56,560

Firms come to believe that a recession is likely in the near future. c. Anticipating the possibility of war, the government increases its purchases of military equipment. d. The quantity of money in the economy declines, and interest rates increase.
Answer:
Following are the solution to these question:
Explanation:
In point a:
The population feels wealthier and seems to be socially secure. This will boost consumption, moving AD to the correct. There is a difference in deflation. Govt must adopt a discretionary monetary policy to fight deflation, that will change AD left.
In point b:
Expenditure has been decreased to increasing jobs or costs. Disinflationary distance exists. To improve DA (shift rectors) and restore full job production, Govt must pursue the expansionary monetary policy.
In point c:
It will once again raise NPA because part A contributes to even more competition with higher public expenditure. The deflation divide is that there is. That alternative is an expansionary tax reform to move to the left.
In point d:
The rise in interest rates declines expenditure and, as part B, reduces AD. The deflationary difference remains. Government must use expansionary monetary policy to fight it, moving AD to a correct.

Likely to occur in an expansion and increase the trade deficit
Likely to occur in an expansion and decrease the trade deficit
private savings decrease domestic private investment increases private savings increase government borrowing decreases imports increase government borrowing increases domestic private investment decreases imports decrease
Answer:
Likely to occur in an expansion and increase the trade deficit.
Domestic private investment increasesImports increaseAs a result of expansion, there is more income in the economy which means that people will be able to invest more. The investment will however lead to more imports as capital goods are acquired. This will therefore increase the trade deficit which is defined as the difference between net exports and net imports.
Likely to occur in an expansion and decrease the trade deficit.
Private savings increaseGovernment borrowing decreasesIn an expansion, people will have more income and so will save more. As a result of them not spending these savings on imports, the trade deficit will go down.
Also with the economy in an expansion, the government would not need to borrow as much money to prop up the economy. This will reduce the trade deficit which includes loans from outside.
A speculator purchases a put option for a premium of $4, with an exercise price of $30. The stock is presently priced at $29, and rises to $32 before the expiration date. What is the maximum profit per unit to the speculator who owned the put option assuming he or she exercises the option at the ideal time
Answer: - $3
Explanation:
We should note that the holder of a put will gain when the share price is below the exercise price.
Since the gain with regards to the question is ($30 - $29) = $1 and the premium paid is 4, then the maximum profit per unit will be:
= Gain - Premium paid
= $1 - $4
= -$3.
Rachel's Designs has 2,000 shares of 7%, $50 par value cumulative preferred stock issued at the beginning of 2019. All remaining shares are common stock. Due to cash flow difficulties, the company was not able to pay dividends in 2019 or 2020. The company plans to pay total dividends of $23,000 in 2021. How much of the $23,000 dividend will be paid to preferred stockholders and how much will be paid to common stockholders
Answer:
the dividend paid to preferred stockholders and paid to common stockholders is $21,000 and $2,000 respectively
Explanation:
The computation of the dividend paid to preferred stockholders and paid to common stockholders is shown below:
For preferred stockholders
= (2,000 × 7% × $50) × 3 years (2019,2020 and 2021)
= $7,000 × 3 years
= $21,000
And, for common stockholders
= $23,000 - $21,000
= $2,000
Hence, the dividend paid to preferred stockholders and paid to common stockholders is $21,000 and $2,000 respectively

Calculate the output gap for 2017. % b. Calculate the output gap for 2018. % c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more .
Answer:
a. Output gap for 2017 = –0.66%
b. Output gap for 2018 = 0.27%
c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more positive.
Explanation:
The following are given in the question:
Year Potential GDP Real GDP
2017 $18.17 trillion $18.05 trillion
2018 $18.51 trillion $18.56 trillion
To calculate output gap in percentage form, the following formula is used:
Output gap = ((Real GDP - Potential GDP) / Potential GDP) * 100 ......... (1)
Therefore, we have:
a. Calculate the output gap for 2017. %
Using equation (1), we have:
Output gap for 2017 = ((18.05 - 18.17) / 18.17) * 100 = –0.66%
b. Calculate the output gap for 2018. %
Using equation (1), we have:
Output gap for 2018 = ((18.56 - 18.51) / 18.51) * 100 = 0.27%
c. From 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more .
Since the output gap in 2017 is negative while the output gap in 2018 is positive; this implies that from 2017 to 2018, the output gap became more positive.
Consider the following statements when answering this question I. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the short-run market price. II. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the long-run market price. I is true, and II is false. I and II are true. I is false, and II is true. I and II are false.
Answer:
I and II are true
Explanation:
I. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the short-run market price
In the short run of the competitive industry when the market demand for goods rises then the price of these goods will also increase. This is because the price equals marginal revenue. Therefore, when price rises then marginal revenue will increase and as a result, the marginal cost curve moves up and firms produce more quantity of goods. This statement is therefore true.
II. Increases in the demand for a good, which is produced by a competitive industry, will raise the long-run market price
The effect of the increase in goods demand is the same in the long run of the competitive industry as it is in the short run. Therefore, a rise in demand would raise the price of the goods above ATC (Average Total Cost). Hence, the above statement is also true.

The company reported accounts receivable and allowance for uncollectible accounts of $476,000 and $1,650 respectively, at December 31, 2020. During 2021, Calistoga's credit sales and collections were $315,000 and $307,000, respectively, and $1,880 in accounts receivable were written off. Calistoga's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021, is:
Answer:
$1,345
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what Calistoga's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021, is
First step is to calculate the Expense amount
Expense=Credit sales $315,000* .5%
Expense=$1,575
Second step is to calculate the Allowance
Allowance 12/31/2020 $1,650
Less Write-offs(1,880)
Allowance ($ 230)debit
Now let calculate the final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts
December 31, 2021 allowance for uncollectible accounts= ($230) + $1,575
December 31, 2021 allowance for uncollectible accounts=$1,345
Therefore Calistoga's final balance in its allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2021, is $1,345
Wallace Company provides the following data for next year: MonthBudgeted Sales January$ 120,000 February 108,000 March 132,000 April 144,000 The gross profit rate is 35 % of sales. Inventory at the end of December is $ 21,600 and target ending inventory level are 20 % of next month's sales, stated at cost. What is the amount of purchases budget for January
Answer:
$70440
Explanation:
Given data :
Month Budgeted sales
January $120,000
February $108,000
March $132,000
April $144,000
Gross profit rate = 35% of sales
Inventory at end of December = $21600
Target ending inventory level = 20% of next month sales
Determine the amount of purchases budget for January
First step : calculate
Cost of goods for January = Budgeted sales - Gross profit
= $120,000 - $42,000 = $78000
Next : determine ending inventory in January
= 20% * ( Budgeted sales in Feb * 65% )
= 20% * ($108000 * 65%) = $14040
Determine budgeted purchase using the Relation below
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Budgeted purchases - Ending inventory
78,000 = 21600 + Budgeted purchases - 14040
therefore
Budgeted purchases for January = ( 78,000 + 14040 - 21600 )
= $70440

A manufacturer has an estimated practical capacity of 90,000 machine hours, and each unit requires two machine hours. The following data apply to a recent accounting period: Actual variable overhead$ 240,000 Actual fixed overhead$ 442,000 Actual machine hours worked 88,000 Actual finished units produced 42,000 Budgeted variable overhead at 90,000 machine hours$ 200,000 Budgeted fixed overhead$ 450,000 Of the following factors, the manufacturer's production volume variance is most likely to have been caused by: A. A wage hike granted to a production supervisor. B. A newly imposed initiative to reduce finished goods inventory levels. C. Acceptance of an unexpected sales order. D. Temporary employment of workers with lower skill levels than originally anticipated.
Answer:
Of the following factors, the manufacturer's production volume variance is most likely to have been caused by:
D. Temporary employment of workers with lower skill levels than originally anticipated.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Estimated practical capacity = 90,000 machine hours
Machine hours per unit = 2
Estimated production units based on capacity = 45,000 (90,000/2)
Budgeted Actual
Variable overhead = $200,000 $240,000
Actual fixed overhead = $450,000 $442,000
Machine hours 90,000 88,000
Units produced 45,000 42,000
Estimated units to be produced based on standard machine hour
= 44,000 units (88,000/2)
Variance between standard units to be produced and actual = 2,000 (44,000 - 42,000) Unfavorable
