Answer:
12%
Explanation:
The computation of the yield to maturity is shown below:
Given that
Coupon (pmt) = $ 25
Present Value of Bond (PV) = $598.55
Face Value (FV) = $1000
No of Semi annual Period (nper) = 10 × 2 = 20
Now
The formula to calculate Bond's Half yearly yield to maturity is = rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
= rate(20,25,-598.55,1000)
= 6%
Now Bond's Annual yield to maturity is
= 6% × 2
= 12%
g Pix Company has the following production data for March: no beginning work in process, units started and completed 29,000, and ending work in process 3,300 units that are 100% complete for materials and 40% complete for conversion costs. Pix uses the FIFO method to compute equivalent units. If unit materials cost is $7 and unit conversion cost is $10. The total costs to be assigned are $529,300, prepare the cost section of the production cost report for Pix Company using the FIFO approach.
Answer:

Units Costs
Costs assigned to completed units 29,000 $493,000
Units Still in Process 3,330 $36,630
Total 32,330 $529,630
Explanation:
Step 1 : Equivalent Units of Production
Materials
To Finish Work in Process 0
Started and Completed (29,000 x 100%) 29,000
Ending Work in Process (3,330 x 100%) 3,330
Equivalent units of Production in Materials 32,330
Conversion Costs
To Finish Work in Process 0
Started and Completed (29,000 x 100%) 29,000
Ending Work in Process (3,330 x 100%) 1,332
Equivalent units of Production in Materials 30,332
Step 2 : Costs assigned to completed units and units still in process
Costs assigned to completed units = Units Completed x total units cost
= 29,000 x $17
= $493,000
Units Still in Process = Materials Cost + Conversion Costs
= 3,330 x $7 + 1,332 x $10
= $36,630

TaeHwan Company accrues bad debt expense during the year at an amount equal to 3% of credit sales. At the end of the year, a journal entry adjusts the allowance for uncollectible accounts to a desired amount based on an aging of accounts receivable. At the beginning of 2018, the allowance account had a credit balance of $18,000. During 2018, credit sales totaled $480,000 and receivables of $14,000 were written off. The year-end aging indicated that a $21,000 allowance for uncollectible accounts was required. TaeHwan's bad debt expense for 2018 would be:
Answer: $17000
Explanation:
TaeHwan's bad debt expense for 2018 would be calculated as the difference between the desired year end balance and the beginning balance written off. This will be:
= $21000 - ($18000 - $14000)
= $21000 - $4000
= $17000
Therefore, TaeHwan's bad debt expense for 2018 would be $17000.

Answer:
If a court finds that the one of Pilgrim's principal purposes in the agreement was the inclusion of an ice-skating pond, the Pilgrim-Celestial contract could be discharged via the doctrine of:
Frustration of Purpose.
Explanation:
The doctrine of Frustration of Purpose occurs when there is a change of circumstances that is not the fault of either Pilgrim Industries or Celestial City Resort. Since these two parties did not cause the circumstances that made it legally, physically, or commercially impossible to fulfil the contract, the contract can be discharged by the court based on this doctrine. It is also known as Force Majeure.
Assume today is December 31, 2019. Imagine Works Inc. just paid a dividend of $1.25 per share at the end of 2019. The dividend is expected to grow at 15% per year for 3 years, after which time it is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% annually. The company's cost of equity (rs) is 9.5%. Using the dividend growth model (allowing for nonconstant growth), what should be the price of the company's stock today (December 31, 2019)
Answer:
Value of stock = $47.99
Explanation:
The price of a stock using the dividend valuation model is the present value of the the future dividend expected from the stock discounted at the required rate of return.
Year Present Value
1 1.25× 1.15^1 × 1.095^(-1) =1.31
2 1.25× 1.15^2 × 1.095^(-2) = 1.38
3. 1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.095^(-3)= 1.45
Present value of Dividend in Year 4 and beyond
This will be done in two steps
Step 1
PV in year 3 terms
= Dividend in year 4× (1.06)/(0.095-0.06)
1.25× 1.15^3 × 1.06/(0.095-0.06)=57.57
PV in year 0 terms =
PV in year 3 × 1.095^(-3)
=57.5759 × 1.095^(-3)= 43.852
Value of stock = 1.3 + 1.38 + 1.45 + 43.852= $47.99
Value of stock = $47.99

Softwind Manufacturing anticipates annual sales of 40,000 units and has the following information regarding one of its products: Annual unit sales 40,000 Fixed manufacturing costs $ 22 Variable manufacturing costs 44 Variable selling and administrative costs 16 Fixed selling and administrative costs 8 Desired profit per unit 18 If Softwind uses cost-plus pricing based on absorption manufacturing cost, what is the sales price Softwind will charge for this product
Answer:
Selling price= $84
Explanation:
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).
Unitary cost= varaible manufacturing cost + fixed manufacturing cost
Unitary cost= 44 + 22= $66
Selling price= 66 + 18
Selling price= $84

You decide to buy a 60 unit apartment complex in Austin for $15,000,000. You have $6,000,000 to use as a down payment and have applied for a $9,000,000 mortgage loan from Bank of the Ozarks. The loan will have a 25 year term, be fully amortizing, and have fixed interest rate of 6.24% per annum. What is your monthly payment on the loan?
a. $54,731.69
b. $59,314.62
c. $65,731.09
d. $98,857.71
Answer:
Monthly payment= $59,314.62
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Loan= $9,000,000
Number of periods (n)= 25*12= 300 months
Interest rate= 0.0624/12= 0.0052
To calculate the monthly payment, we need to use the following formula:
Monthly payment= (PV*i) / [1 - (1+i)^(-n)]
Monthly payment= (9,000,000*0.0052) / [1 - (1.0052^-300)]
Monthly payment= $59,314.62

Cincinnati t-shirts prints custom t-shirts. The cost to produce one shirt is: direct materials, $10; direct labor, $1.20; and manufacturing overhead $4.50. Cincinnati Children’s Hospital asked Cincinnati t-shirt to sell them custom t-shirts for $12 each for a local charity event. Direct material and direct labor are required for each t-shirt. Of the manufacturing overhead, $1.50 is variable and would be incurred on each additional unit. The remaining $3 in overhead is allocated fixed overhead that would not be increased or decreased by this order. What would be the effect on net income if they accept this special order and sell 200 shirts to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital for $12 each?
Answer:
Effect on income= $140 decrease
Explanation:
Giving the following formula:
Production costs:
Direct material= 10
Direct labor= 1.2
Variable overhead= $1.5
Selling price= $12
Number of units= 200
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= 200*(12 - 10 - 1.2 - 1.5)
Effect on income= $140 decrease

Heidi is having trouble understanding the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement and why her workplace sent out an email affirming the company's commitment to diversity and inclusion. This is probably because as a white woman from a small town with little exposure to diversity efforts, Heidi has not had much education about what BLM is trying to accomplish. She is wrestling with this new information about systemic racism and ultimately dismisses it as unfounded because it is contrary to her past experiences. This is an illustration of which of the following?
a. Stereotyping
b. An entrenched mental model
c. Leader-Member Exchange Theory
d. Ethnocentrism
e. Social Identity Theory
Answer:
e. Social Identity Theory
Explanation:
It is correct to state that the scenario in the question above refers to the theory of social identity, which is a theory that seeks to explain how the categorization of groups such as those based on culture, social class, race, age, directly impact the life of an individual and their perception of the world. Psychology seeks to analyze how important it is for an individual to belong to a group and to form an identity based on the collective of that group, that is, to form a society.
Therefore, the theory of social identity suggests that there is an inclination for individuals to overestimate the characteristics of the group to which they belong and to minimize the characteristics of other groups, which can generate prejudice, racism and apathy, which is what happened with Heidi, who considered information about systemic racism unfounded by the fact that they are contrary to their previous experiences.

You have a 25-year maturity, 10% coupon, 10% yield bond with a duration of 10 years and a convexity of 135. If the interest rate were to increase 125 basis points, your predicted price change for the bond (including convexity) is
Answer:
The price change for the bond is -10.31%
Explanation:
Use the following formula to calculate the price change for the bond
Price change of bond = ( -Modified duration x Change in rate ) + ( 0.5 x Convexity x ( Change in rate )^2 )
Where
Modified duration = Duration / ( 1 + YTM ) = 10 years / ( 1 + 10% ) = 9.0909091
Change in rate = 125 basis point / 100 = 1.25%
Convexity = 135
Placing Values in the formula
Price change of bond = ( -9.0909091 x 1.25% ) + ( 0.5 x 135 x ( 1.25% )^2 )
Price change of bond = -0.11364 + 0.01055
Price change of bond = -0.10309
Price change of bond = -0.1031
Price change of bond = -10.31%

Debt to Total Assets fill in the blank 1 Long-Term Debt to Total Equity fill in the blank 2
Answer:
A. Debt to Total Assets ratio 0.5833 times
B. Long Term Debt to Total Equity Ratio 0.48 times
Explanation:
A. Calculation for Red's debt to assets ratio using this formula
Debt to Total Assets ratio = Total Liabilities/
Total Assets
Let plug in the formula
Debt to Total Assets ratio=$1,750,000/$3,000,000
Debt to Total Assets ratio=0.5833 times
Therefore the Debt to Total Assets ratio will be 0.5833 times
B. Calculation to determine its long-term debt to equity ratio
First step is to calculate the Shareholders’ Equity using this formula
Shareholders’ Equity = Total Assets – Total outside liabilities
Let plug in the formula
Shareholders’ Equity = $3,000,000-$1,750,000 Shareholders’ Equity =$1,250,000
Now let calculate the Long Term Debt to Total Equity Ratio using this formula
Long Term Debt to Total Equity Ratio = Long Term Debt/ Total Shareholder’s equity
Let plug in the formula Long Term Debt to Total Equity Ratio=$600,000/$1,250,000
Long Term Debt to Total Equity Ratio= 0.48 times
Therefore Long Term Debt to Total Equity Ratio will be 0.48 times

Chris invests a total of $19,000 in two accounts. The first account earned a rate of return of 13% (after a year). However, the second account suffered a 2% loss in the same time period. At the end of one year, the total amount of money gained was $1,495.00. How much was invested into each account
Answer:
Amount invested in account with 13% return = $12499.97 rounded off to 12500
Amount invested in account with -2% return = 6500.03 rounded off to 6500
Explanation:
To calculate the amount invested in each account, we must first calculate the total return earned by Chris as a percentage of his investment.
Total Return/gain = 1495 / 19000 = 0.078684 or 7.8684%
To calculate the overall return, we must use the weighted average of returns provided by each account. The weighted average can be calculated as follows,
Average Overall Return = wA * rA + wB * rB
Where,
w represents the weight of investment in each account as a percentage of overall investmentr represents the return provided by each accountLet weight of investment in account that provided 13% return be x
Let weight of investment in account that provided -2% return be (1 - x)
0.078684 = x * 0.13 + (1-x) * -0.02
0.078684 = 0.13x - 0.02 + 0.02x
0.078684 + 0.02 = 0.15x
x = 0.098684 / 0.15
x = 0.65789333333 or 65.789333333%
Amount invested in account with 13% return = 19000 * 65.789333333%
Amount invested in account with 13% return = $12499.97 rounded off to 12500
Amount invested in account with -2% return = 19000 * (1 - 65.789333333%)
Amount invested in account with -2% return = 6500.03 rounded off to 6500

Paola and Isidora are married; file a joint tax return; report modified AGI of $148,000; and have one dependent child, Dante. The couple paid $12,000 of tuition and $10,000 for room and board for Dante (a freshman). Dante is a full-time student and claimed as a dependent by Paola and Isidora. Determine the amount of the American Opportunity credit for 2020.
Answer:
$2,500
Explanation:
The computation of the amount is shown below;
In the case when the modified AGI upto $180,000 so it would be credit by $2,500 per eligible student
As we can see that in the given situation there is modified AGI that reported $148,000 so here the amount of the American Opportunity credit for 2020 is $2,500 also we assume that the eligibility condition would be satisfied
Coffee Klatch is an espresso stand in a downtown office building. The average selling price of a cup of coffee is $1.49 and the average variable expense per cup is $0.36. The average fixed expense per month is $1,300. Use the formula method to determine how many cups of coffee would have to be sold to attain target profits of $3,000 per month.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
The formula method is denoted by
Unit sales to attain the targeted profit =( Target profit + Fixed expenses) / Contribution margin per unit
Target profit = $3,000 per month
Fixed expenses = $1,300
Contribution margin per unit = $1.49 - $0.36 = $1.13
Therefore, unit sales to attain targeted profit = ($3,000 + $1,300) / $1.13 = 3,805.31 units
It means that 3,805.31 cup of coffee would have to be sold to attain target profit of $3,000 per month.
The internal rate of return : (mark all that applies) does not need a required rate to calculate. rule states that a typical investment project with an IRR that is less than the required rate of return should be accepted. is the more sound decision rule when dealing with mutually exclusive projects is the rate that causes the net present value of a project to exactly equal zero. can effectively be used to analyze all investment scenarios.
Answer:
does not need a required rate to calculate
is the rate at which npv is zero
Explanation:
Internal rate of return is an example of capital budgeting method
Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
Projects with the IRR greater than the discount rate should be accepted. It means that it is profitable.
Projects with more than one negative cash flow are unsuitable for calculating with IRR. This is because it can lead to multiple IRR, Thus, it not suitable for analysing all investment scenarios.
The net present value is the most preferred capital budgeting method
Other capital budgeting methods includes
1. profitability index = 1 + (NPV / Initial investment)
2. Accounting rate of return = Average net income / Average book value
3. Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows
4. Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
