Answer:
Tax liability:
Chandler is in 85,525 - 163,300 bracket.
Liability is:
= 14,605.50 + (24 % * (94,800 - 85,525))
= 14,605.50 + 2,226
= $16,832
Marginal Tax rate = 24%
Marginal tax rate for 85,525 - 163,300 bracket is 24%.
Average tax rate:
= Tax liability / Taxable income
= 16,832 / 94,800
= 17.76%

Holly files married filing jointly and reports income of $300,000 ($340,000 AGI - $40,000 itemized deductions) before the deduction for qualified business income. She has no capital gains or dividends included in taxable income. Holly's engineering consulting service generates $20,000 of qualified business income. She paid no wages during the current year. What is Holly's deduction for qualified business income
Answer:
$4,000
Explanation:
The computation of the deduction for qualified business income is shown below:
In this the lower amount should be considered
20% of net income or 20% of qualified business income
20% of $300,000 or 20% of $20,000
So the lower amount is $4,000
hence, the same would be represented as a deduction
If XYZ invested $5,800 today in an account that is expected to earn 3.2 percent per year, and she expects to make another investment in the same account in 3 years from today, then how much money does XYZ expect to invest in 3 years if she expects to have $15,000 in her account in 4 years from today
Answer:
The answer is "$8,160.08".
Explanation:
[tex]A= \text{future value} = \$ 15,000 \\\\P= \text{present value}= \$ 5,800 \\\\r=\tex{rate} =3.2 \%\\\\n= \text{time in years} = 4[/tex]
Using formula:
[tex]A=P(1+ \frac{r}{100})^n + \text{Investment in 3 years} \times (1.032)\\\\15,000=5,800 (1+ \frac{3.2}{100})^4 + \text{Investment in 3 years} \times (1.032)\\\\15,000=5,800 (1+ 0.032)^4 + \text{Investment in 3 years} \times (1.032)\\\\15,000=5,800 (1.032)^4 + \text{Investment in 3 years} \times (1.032)\\\\[/tex]
[tex]15,000 = 5,800 \times 1.13427612 +\text{Investment in 3 years} \times (1.032)\\\\15,000=6,578.8015 + \text{Investment in 3 years} \times (1.032)\\\\\text{Investment in 3 years} = \frac{(15000-6578.8015)}{1.032}\\\\\text{Investment in 3 years} = \frac{8,421.1985}{1.032}\\\\\text{Investment in 3 years} = 8,160.07607\\\\ \text{Investment in 3 years} = 8,160. 08[/tex]
Stevens placed an ad in a literary magazine offering $7,400 for a complete set of Vacation in Paradise, a five volume set. Adams, who was not aware of the offer, gave to Stevens four volumes of the Vacation in Paradise set as a birthday present. Adams was informed of the offer at some point, obtained the missing volume, brought the volume to Stevens and requested the $7,400 payment. Stevens refused. If Adams sues, will he prevail
Answer:
Yes he will prevail because the advert placed is a unilateral contract
Explanation:
A unilateral contract is one that has only one promisor who receives a promise for his from the offeror. It is usually settlement for a particular service or product.
On the other hand bilateral agreement has both parties as the promisor and offeror. Meaning both of them have conditions that must be fulfilled in the contract by the other person.
In the given instance Stevens placed an ad in a literary magazine offering $7,400 for a complete set of Vacation in Paradise, a five volume set.
Any service short of this can be viewed as a failure in the contract.
Adams gave to Stevens four volumes of the Vacation in Paradise set as a birthday present. Adams was informed of the offer at some point, obtained the missing volume, brought the volume to Stevens.
Since Adams had not initially satisfied conditions set by Stevens, Stevens can refuse to make the $7,400 payment
Assume that the risk-free rate of interest is 3% and the expected rate of return on the market is 15%. I am buying a firm with an expected perpetual cash flow of $2,000 but am unsure of its risk. If I think the beta of the firm is 0.8, when in fact the beta is really 1.6, how much more will I offer for the firm than it is truly worth
Answer:
The correct solution is "$6,564.01". A further solution is given below.
Explanation:
The given values are:
beta,
= 1.6
market return,
= 15%
cash flow,
= $2,000
risk free rate of interest,
= 3%
Now,
The stock return will be:
= [tex]3+ 1.6\times (15-3)[/tex]
= [tex]3+ 1.6\times 12[/tex]
= [tex]22.2 \ percent[/tex]
The actual worth of the firm will be:
= [tex]\frac{cash \ flow}{rate \ of \ return}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2000}{22.2 \ percent}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2000}{0.222}[/tex]
= [tex]9,009[/tex]
With 0.8 beta, the stock return will be:
= [tex]3+ 0.8\times (15-3)[/tex]
= [tex]3+ 0.8\times 12[/tex]
= [tex]12.6 \ percent[/tex]
So that I'm paying for the firm,
= [tex]\frac{2000}{12.6 \ percent}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2000}{0.126}[/tex]
= [tex]15,573.01[/tex] ($)
Hence,
I'm paying,
= [tex]15,573.01-9,009[/tex]
= [tex]6,564.01[/tex] ($)

During the month of March, Harley's Computer Services made purchases on account totaling $45,500. Also during the month of March, Harley was paid $11,000 by a customer for services to be provided in the future and paid $37,900 of cash on its accounts payable balance. If the balance in the accounts payable account at the beginning of March was $78,300, what is the balance in accounts payable at the end of March
Answer:
$85,900
Explanation:
The balance in the account payable at the end of March is computed as;
= Beginning balance of account payable + purchase made - paid amounts of its account payable balance
= $78,300 + $45,500 - $37,900
= $85,900
Please note that the amount for services to be provided in the future is not in anyway related to account payable, thereby must be excluded.
Investment X offers to pay you $5,200 per year for eight years, whereas Investment Y offers to pay you $7,300 per year for five years. Calculate the present value for Investment X and Y if the discount rate is 5 percent. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Present value Investment X $ Investment Y $ Calculate the present value for Investment X and Y if the discount rate is 15 percent. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Investment X:
Annual payment= $5,200 per year for eight years
Investment Y;
Annual payment= $7,300 per year for five years
Discount rate= 15%
To calculate the present value, first, we determine the future value. Then the present value.
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual payment
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
Investment X:
FV= {5,200*[(1.15^8) - 1]} / 0.15
FV= $71,379.46
PV= 71,379.46/1.15^8
PV= $23,334.07
Investment Y:
FV= {7,300*[(1.15^5) - 1]} / 0.15
FV= $49,219.38
PV= 49,219.38/1.15^5
PV= $24,470.73

If real GDP grew by 6 percent and population grew by 2 percent, then real GDP per person grew by approximately ______ percent.
Answer:
3%
Explanation:
Real GDP per person is a measure of the economic wellbeing of the populace of a country.
Real GDP per person = Real GDP / population
6% / 2% = 3%
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Real GDP is GDP calculated using base year prices. Real GDP has been adjusted for inflation.
One problem with using market values to measure GDP is that A. some useful goods and services are not sold in markets. B. you cannot compare completely heterogeneous goods by using their dollar values. C. prices for some goods change every year. D. market values of exported goods are usually priced in foreign currencies.
Answer:
C. prices for some goods change every year.
Explanation:
The reason why the real GDP (GDP adjusted to inflation) is a much better economic index than nominal GDP is that prices change over time, even if the quantities produced do not. It is actually possible for nominal GDP to increase even if total production output decreases due solely to high inflation rates.

The NPV and IRR method occasionally do not agree on accept/reject decisions when evaluating an investment proposal.
True or False?
The NPV and IRR method occasionally do not agree on accept/reject decisions when evaluating an investment proposal. The given statement is False.
Why positive NPV should be accepted?A project or venture has a positive NPV if the estimated earnings, discounted for their present value, are more than the anticipated costs, also expressed in today's currency. A positive NPV indicates an investment that is likely to be successful. Net loss will arise from an investment with a negative NPV.
The total of the investment's anticipated cash inflows and outflows, discounted back to their present value at a risk-adjusted rate, is known as the net present value. Project acceptance is granted if the NPV exceeds $0. The project is turned down in any other case.
Thus, the given statement is False.

On December 30, 2005, Bart, Inc. purchased a machine from Fell Corp. in exchange for a non-interest bearing note requiring eight payments of $20,000. The first payment was made on December 30, 2005, and the others are due annually on December 30. At date of issuance, the prevailing rate of interest for this type of note was 11%. Present value factors are as follows:
Period Present value of ordinary annuity of 1 at 11% Present value of annuity in advance of 1 at 11%
7 4.712 5.231
8 5.146 5.712
On Bart's December 31, 2005 balance sheet, the note payable to Fell was:
a. $114,240
b. $104,620
c. $94,240
d. $102,920
Answer: c. $94,240
Explanation:
On December 31, 2005, one payment has already been made which would mean that only 7 payments are left. As the first of these remaining 7 will be paid the year after, this is an ordinary annuity.
Note payable value = Present value of seven $20,000 payments
= 20,000 * Present value of ordinary annuity of 1 at 11% for 7 years.
= 20,000 * 4.712
= $94,240
acquired: Firm A has a margin of 11%, sales of $610,000, and ROI of 17%. Calculate the firm's average total assets. Firm B has net income of $72,000, turnover of 1.40, and average total assets of $920,000. Calculate the firm's sales, margin, and ROI. Firm C has net income of $136,000, turnover of 2.01, and ROI of 23.40%. Calculate the firm's margin, sales, and average total assets.
Answer:
1. Firm's average total assets = Net Income/ROI = $610,000*0.11 / 0.17 = $394,705.88
2. Sales = Assets turnover ratio * Average total assets = 1.40*920,000 = $1,288,000
Margin = Net Income / Sales = $72,000/$1,288,000 = 0.06
ROI = Net Income / Average Total Assets = $72,000/920,000 = 0.078
3. Average Total Assets = Net Income / ROI = $136,000/23.40% = 136,000/0.2340 = $581,196.58
Sales = Assets turnover ratio * Average total assets= 2.01*$581,196.58 = $1,168,205.12
Margin = Net Income / Sales = $136,000/$1,168,205.12 = 0.1164

Assume that John deposits $8,000 into an account that has a 2.4% annual interest rate for 8 years. (a) If the interest is compounded annually, there will be $ in the account. (b) If the interest is compounded monthly, there will be $ in the account. (c) If the interest is compounded weekly, there will be $ in the account. (d) If the interest is compounded daily, there will be $ in the account. (e) If the interest is compounded continuously, there will be $ in the account.
Answer:
a) Compounded Annually = $9671.41
b) Compounded Monthly = $9691.51
c) Compounded Weekly = $9692.93
d) Compounded Daily = $9693.30
e) Compounded Continuously = $9693.36
Explanation:
Solution:
This question is very simple. We just need to know the basic formula.
Data Given:
P = Principal Amount = $8000
i = interest rate = 2.4% annual
n = period or year = 8 years.
So, our basic formula is:
A = P [tex](1 + \frac{r}{100}) ^{n}[/tex]
a) Compounded Annually.
A = P [tex](1 + \frac{r}{100}) ^{n}[/tex]
A = 8000 [tex](1 + \frac{0.024}{100}) ^{8}[/tex]
A = $9671.41
b) Compounded Monthly:
1 year = 12 months.
A = P [tex](1 + \frac{r}{100*12}) ^{n*12}[/tex]
A = 8000 [tex](1 + \frac{0.024}{100*12}) ^{8*12}[/tex]
A = $9691.51
c) Compounded Weekly:
1 year = 52 weeks
A = P [tex](1 + \frac{r}{100*52}) ^{n*52}[/tex]
A = 8000 [tex](1 + \frac{0.024}{100*52}) ^{8*52}[/tex]
A = $9692.93
d) Compounded Daily:
1 year = 365 days
A = P [tex](1 + \frac{r}{100*365}) ^{n*365}[/tex]
A = 8000 [tex](1 + \frac{0.024}{100*365}) ^{8*365}[/tex]
A = $9693.30
e) Compounded Continuously:
For this we have following formula:
A = P[tex]e^{\frac{n*r}{100} }[/tex]
A = P[tex]e^{\frac{8*0.024}{100} }[/tex]
A = $9693.36

Two new software projects are proposed to a young, start-up company. The Alpha project will cost $530,000 to develop and is expected to have annual net cash flow of $60,000. The Beta project will cost $170,000 to develop and is expected to have annual net cash flow of $18,000. The company is very concerned about their cash flow. Calculate the payback period for each project. Which project is better from a cash flow standpoint
Answer: See Explanation
Explanation:
The payback period for both projects would be calculated as:
Alpha Project
Cost = $530,000
Annual net cash flow = $60,000
Payback period = Cash / Annual net cash flow
= $530,000 / $60,000
= 8.83
Beta Project
Cost = $170,000
Annual net cash flow = $18,000
Payback period = Cash / Annual net cash flow
= $170,000 / $18,000
= 9.4
We can see that Alpha Project is better as the payback period is lesser than Beta project

Answer: $0.70
Explanation:
The value of the option to wait would be calculated thus:
Year Cash flow PVF at 12% PV
0 $-480 1.000 $(480.00)
1 $350 0.893 $312.50
2 $350 0.797 $279.02
3 $350 0.712 $249.12
Then, the Net present value will be:
= 312.50 + 279.02 + 249.12 - 480.00
= $360.64
Year Cash flow PVF at 12%. PV
0 $-1.000 1.000. 0
1 $-520 0.893 $(464.29)
2 $385 0.797 $306.92
3 $385 0.712 $274.04
4 $385 0.636 $244.67
Net present value = $361.34
The value of the option to wait would then be calculated as:
= $361.34 - $360.64
= $0.70
XYZ just deposited $3,700 in an account that will earn 7.1 percent per year in compound interest for 9 years. If Svetlana deposits $4,000 in an account in 3 years that earns simple interest, then how much simple interest per year must Svetlana earn to have the same amount of money in 9 years from today as XYZ will have in 9 years from today
Answer:
11.92%
Explanation:
The computation of the simple interest per year is shown below:
Future value would be
= Deposited Amount × (1 + rate of interest)^years
= $3,700 × (1 + 7.1%)^9
= $6,859.73
Now the simple interest is
= (Future value ÷ deposit) - 1 ÷ number of year
= ($6,859.73 ÷ $4,000) - 1 ÷ 9
= 0.71493 ÷ 9
= 11.92%
